use a coat hanger and bend a small hook on the end, but close the hook with tape, then just slide the other end of the coat hanger through the gromit,leaving the hooked end to put the wire in,that is the way I did it,but this was a long time ago,when I did mine. It is hard to get it to go through the gromet ,but it will go.

 

I had this hard plastic thing-a-ma-jig that would not allow me to run any wires thru inside the cabin. The only way I could have doen it was to take the door off and drill the plastic

Changed a lot from the 2005 door. You got me on that one.

 

I have a 2006 GT - I think I know what you are seeing, I had similar problems. It took a lot of patience and some cut up fingers and knuckles, but I managed to get four 12 guage wire through the cabin, around the harness and into the door. It was two years ago so I am going off memory. They're may be an old post about it here, search on my user name, maybe it will come up.

The grey plastic harness can be snapped out of the door gently with a screwdriver. It's actually two pieces, the wire harness itself and an outer ring that snaps into the door. I was able to run the 12 guage wire around the outside of the harness and then snap the outer ring back in place.

This of course is after you manage to get the wire from underneath the dash and out to the harness. As you can see from your photo, there are two plates of metal, the first is a dash support with an oval hole in it. Then, in the next plate, completely misaligned with the oval hole is another hole - I think it has a rubber gasket over it or that may be the oval hole earlier - or maybe Ford got cheap and stopped putting them in. Any way the hole is up and to the left of the oval hole - you have to fish the wire through that hole and now you're in the body panel and you can shove it out to the door.

It probably took me a 1/2 hour or more each side to fish the wire through the misaligned hole. I have small hands/skinny fingers which probably helped a lot. It probably took another 1/2 hour each side to get the black rubber piece around the harness correctly.

The suggestion of using some kind of fish wire above probably would have worked just the same and spared my hands. The metal edges are sharp and will cut you up.

Good luck!

Belated thanks to Hawgman - he figured out how the clip was put together.
