It should be accessible from both sides (that is probably the difficult part).

And on top, any suggestions on rubber parts to nicely fill the hole again would be nice (I don't know the english term, but would be looking for a rubber feedthrough which either is quite tight already or can be filled with rubbery stuff).

I found another similar sized grommet in this loom (I think it is the one going from the frunk to the wheel well side) and was able to test fit: perfect fit:

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

As the title suggests, I need to get a few wires from the frunk and battery area into the interior. Frunk to battery is easy, so let's focus on battery to interior.
Original loom has three entry points, one left, one right and the battery positive. Left and right ones are completely molded, the only way I found to get wires out (or in for that matter) is to destroy it. So I don't want to do that for the additional wires I need to run (any wires I don't need anymore might as well be left in place).
So I am looking for suggestions on a place to get some wires in. It should be accessible from both sides (that is probably the difficult part). And on top, any suggestions on rubber parts to nicely fill the hole again would be nice (I don't know the english term, but would be looking for a rubber feedthrough which either is quite tight already or can be filled with rubbery stuff).
The wires I need to run:
- +12V power steering pump to main circuit breaker box (the white box directly behind the +12V battery connection)
- Brake signal switch (I have only one signal now, ABS 5.7 requires both the NO and NC contacts)
- +12V fused for the ABS (so to the regular fuse box)
- CAN signal pair of ABS unit (will end up in rear trunk for Audi ECU
I might have missed one, but I guess these are the main. So not that many, but still some to feed through. Thanks for any pointers. Will also look in my wreck to judge locations, but I'm sure someone has done something similar already (radio wires or what).
There is a large, unused grommet behind the battery. I loomed all my wires together, cut a small x in the grommet, then split out the wires from there to both sides of the interior.

Yep - looks to be the one. Comes in above the pedals on the drivers side.
I swapped my amp in the frunk, and the factory supply signals are loomed with the speaker output and gave horrific interference. I ran component audio in through this grommet and the interference was solved.
Perfect. Today I took this grommet out of the wreck (it is in a diffferent location because it is a RHD car). I found another similar sized grommet in this loom (I think it is the one going from the frunk to the wheel well side) and was able to test fit: perfect fit:
I intend to use this to take the wires inside, looks like a neat solution to me
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
