As you are looking at the firewall, there is a rubber grommet behind the battery that is an oval shape with a bundle of wires running through the center. Carefully cut a hole in the side of this and pass your power wire through it. Make sure to fuse this wire within 10" of the battery. Do not run a ground wire to the battery, instead, ground the amp someplace close by such as a seatbelt bolt.

Edit: Here's a photo of what I'm talking about.
