Default firewall grommet

Hey guys,

I'm wiring up lights and I was wondering what is the easiest way to get the wires from my switch through the firewall to the engine bay. Pictures would be helpful.

Thanks

I just poked a hole in the grommet with an awl and fished my wire through that, worked out pretty good.
