look toward the left closer to the top. There is a rubber plug. Pop it out and snake through.You will have to remove the glove box. squeeze together. pull out. be careful and make sure your power cable has an in line fuse and make a good ground for your amp and yur good 2 go.

On the left side at the top of the firewall is a large grommet about 1 1/2" in diameter you can use. For us NA spec'd yaris' it is behind the battery. Not sure if your battery placement is different

On both my 09 and 11 HB I got through the firewall on the passenger side from the interior by removing handglove box and panel below it and detaching the carpet from its highest position. To undo the clip attaching the carpet just take a flathead screwdriver and pop the middle of the clip. Find the black rubber grommet, make a X cut in the carpet in front of the grommet to get your wire trough. Remove the entire grommet and if you have big wire, cut the center with a knife and keep only the rubber"ring". If you have a tiny wire, take a drill and make small hole in the center without cutting it. Get wire trough ring and put ring back in the firewall hole. Use silicone if not completely sealed.

Hello is this in the same spot on the 3rd gen model 2015? The 2nd and 3rd gens have the same body so the hole described by Jeanseb29 should still be there. That's how I brought the wires for the supercharger into the cabin when I had it installed.

The firewall is the panel that divides the passenger compartment from the engine compartment. The hole we're talking about is about 2 cm in diameter and has a rubber plug in it. It's behind the wiper cowl, above the ECM, almost up to the windshield. You might have to remove a few parts to be able to reach it--wiper arms, wiper cowl, wiper tray. The hood can probably stay in place even though the repair manual says you should remove it for accessing that area.
You can also see it from under the dashboard but you have to remove the glovebox and peel back the padding a little bit at the top.
