Alright, Lets start off in the engine bay...

Over by the battery, if you remove the clamp that holds down the battery and slide the battery towards the engine a couple of inches, you will see a grommet to the left, below the battery tray. Take a sharp object like a X-Acto knife and poke a hole in this grommet.

Now open up your passenger side door, and start removing all of the trim panels around the door.

Next remove the passenger side seat.

Un-bolt the seat-belt bolt on the floor

Remove the plastic panel on the back wall of the passenger compartment (looks like a vent and has the hooks for the net storage thingie).

Lift up all of the carpet (as best you can)

And now you have clear access to run your power wire for your amplifier.

Just remember to place a fuse within 12 inches of your battery, and a ground point as close as you can to the amplifier.

And for a little tip running your power wire through the rubber grommet in the firewall (if you have trouble getting it through). Get a small mixture of water and dishwashing soap and coat the first couple inches of the power wire, and that should do it!

Another little tip: Try and keep the power wire away from the speaker wire. BUT... If the speaker wire does have to cross over or under the power wire, try your best to have it cross at a 90 degree angle.

If you run into any problems let me know! Good Luck and Have Fun!
