Routing the Power Wire for Trailer Wiring on a 2007 Toyota Camry XLE

Question:

I bought the curt traiker lighting package and cannot seem to find a way to route power to the trunk. Followed wiring harness through trunk and drivers side inside fine. However, cannot find a way through to the engine compartment from the driver compartment inside cab. Car is a toyota camry 2007 XLE.

In a situation where there is no obvious or easily accessible route through the firewall into the engine compartment on a vehicle, you will have to drill a hole. You have to be careful not to drill through anything that is on the other side of the firewall.

After you drill and route the wire through, make sure to seal up the hole using silicone to keep out moisture and fumes. I have included a link to an FAQ article with tips on routing the power wire that you might find useful.
