There's a hole with a rubber grommet on the driver's side of the firewall, to the right of the brake booster, if I remember correctly it holds the hood release cable, I've fished wires through that before on my 96 I imagine there should be something similar on your 01.

I wired factory fogs in an '00 that did not come with them. To the right of the power brake booster is a metal disc. I drilled a 1/2" hole in there to come through with the wire wrapped in split loom. Plenty of room to drill from the engine compartment.

I did mine the same. Pushed them through the hood cable grommet
