Default Installing aftermarket backup camera

I have a 2011 Dodge 2500 truck with a mygig radio installed. I bought a aftermarket backup camera for it. Now I'm trying to figure out how to run the wire through the firewall so that I can run it to the back of the truck. I've looked around to see where I could string the wire through but I'm not sure of the best place to do it, any suggestions? Thanks

28. Cut the end off the dash panel grommet nipple (1)
hanging off the bottom side of the body harness near
the brake booster.
NOTE: Ensure when routing the wire not to damage
the wire terminals.
29. Route the backup camera harness through the dash
panel grommet nipple, except for the WT/LG and BK
wire.
30. Apply Mopar® RTV 82300234 around the grommet

nipple.

My RCA plug won't fit through the #1 hole... is that #2 for cutting a hole in the rubber?

No. If you have an automatic you should cut the plastic cover where the clutch slave cylinder would go through
