Firewall where is it located?
If anyone was wondering, I gave up but I did find a solution. I have a DSG car so there is a hole cut with a rubber grommet covering it where the clutch pedal is meant to be. The insulation just needs to be moved to see it, and in the engine bay, it's behind the heat shield.

Firewall where is it located?
Hi All, I am trying to install a tune in my car, which requires a cable to be run from the tuning box to my OBD port. The only issue I am facing is I cannot find where the grommet on the firewall is. Has anyone installed any cables through it, and can you point me in the right direction?

Match 5.4 DSP Setting
I have been looking at that thread as well but it seems like they have the Canton system so the Q5 sub can be dropped in but from what I can tell the 8 speaker system doesn’t come with any wiring or amp from the factory so it won’t work. I’ve installed the Match PP 8E-Q just because I found it cheap. The issue is this sub is rated for 3 ohms and the Match 5.4 provides either 90 watts at 4 ohm or 160 watts at 2 ohm but it still does support my sub. It doesn’t give me a rating for 3 but let’s say it’s in the middle of the two so around 125watts. I believe for better compatibility and slightly more power I should have bought the PP 7S-D which is rated at 2 ohms. Regarding the placement when the glovebox is off you will see space that can be accessed by removed the trim as show in the photos below. I wrapped the amp in some double sided stick tape so it doesn’t rub against the cars metal frame then zip tied it in to avoid it moving. If you even need to change the amp setting you can easily remove the side trim and plug in the usb cable.

Match 5.4 DSP Setting
I left all the settings within the DSP stock and didn’t choose the more advanced DSP setting. I am really impressed with how much it has changed the system. The highs are clear now and don't sound muddy. The bass is tighter even without the sub and the volume has also increased a decent amount. A few things to note, the system now sounds very balanced even with the subwoofer it’s not overwhelming. If you’re installing this on a RHD car, space to fit the DSP is an issue so it doesn’t interfere with the glovebox and all the videos are demonstrated on LHD. If you want help I’m more than happy to show you how I have mounted it.

Match 5.4 DSP Setting
Hi All, I recently purchased the Match 5.4 DSP to try and bring some more life into the stock speakers also to add a subwoofer. Has anyone here installed any Match dsp into their car and if you have what settings did you use for the dsp?
