I think the DIY pictures are broken. However the text description within the DIY is very good.

Find the rubber grommet above and to the left of the battery (assuming you are starring at the battery from the front of the car). I made a hole in this and ran my power wire throught. It comes out at the passenger side foot area.

Make sure you use silicon to seal around the power wire on the grommet, as this grommet gets soaked by windshield runoff when it's raining.

Then tear our the passenger side interior and run the power wire along there. If you remove the backseat, you'll see a convenient hole (lined with a hard white plasic grommet thing) that allows you to easily get the power wire into your trunk.

Really once you get the power wire through the grommet, if you can blunder your way through removing the interior pieces (not hard if you just pay attention and take your time), it's pretty uncomplicated as far as running the wire.

I didn't give you an answer so you could flame other people. When I needed the DIY myself the pictures were broken too. I used what the DIY said and figured it out myself. So searching for it was still a decent suggestion
