Default Front camera installation help

Hi all,
I purchased the ISUDAR add-on circuit board for my PCM 3.1. In addition to Apple CarPlay, it provides inputs for both front and rear cameras. I have installed the front camera and have run the wires up to the "firewall", but do not see an obvious way to get the cable into the cabin. For those who have done this, how did you accomplish this part of the task?

I've looked at many YouTube videos, but couldn't find one that addressed this part of the installation.

Thanks for your help!

I ran mine through the firewall on the passenger side through the foam around the airbox.

I just did this a few weeks ago. There is a grommet behind the battery. (Sorry the iphone update turned the picture). The Cabin air filter is the black box on the left. I removed the battery and it's mount and got easy access to run the wires into the passenger floorboard (LHD car).

Thanks for the picture. Hard to tell from looking at it, but did you use the grommet below where you have the wire secured? Looks like some kind of a hose passes through there.

yea. You’ll see it when you get back there. It’s a bundle of wires. I was able to run the camera cable then reseat the grommet. You could also use some puddy like they use on the side of a house where the utilities enter.

this picture may help a bit more.
