Exige cable routing

[TheTalentedMr]

I need to route some cable (2 x 1.5mm dia) from the boot into the cabin through the bulkhead but I can’t find anywhere to bring it in. The obvious place was through the hole where the boot release cable comes in but there’s not a millimetre of space around it and it’s so stiff I can’t get any wiggle room down the side.
Has anyone had any experience with this and is there an easy access orifice I can use (no jokes please)? I don’t want to remove any bodywork (except side pods if nec’). All suggestions welcome, I feel like I’ve been training as a contortionist today bending around in there to try and find a route.

A common route is to enter the cabin where the handbrake cable enters ..
You'll need to remove the rear undertray to thread the cable through. .

Do you think I can get access to the hole without jacking the car up? I'm assuming i'll need to remove the centre console for this as well?

Depends on your physique

Have a look here for the routing

I'm no porker but you have to be the size of a rodent or have Inspector Gadget arms to reach anything underneath.

The diagram really helped so thanks. Thats quite a good website actually, some useful pics.

There's not much room to work around the car in my garage and it makes life a pain for access to things, not only that but they aren't the easiest things to work on anyway, space wise.

Cheers for the advice.

I park mine half in the garage and up on some paving flags just to give me that little bit more room to change the exhaust

Superb idea. I was just thinking to myself I could go even higher, then the penny dropped and I realised i'd end up driving the front splitter into the ground if I went to mad.

All this effort for reverse sensors, wish I hadn't of bothered.

An exige will reverse up standard diy car ramps no problem ...
The sort you can buy from most motor factors
