Here is a disclaimer that zeusenergy suggests:

Hey man, please update the thread with a disclaimer about using GOOD insulation on the cable where it passes through. The grommet can come out with movement and the wire insualtion can rub thru, leading to the fires we have seen on this forum. (possibly)
I have seen this happen to many cars, esp. after the cable is passed through, then moved around a bit to get over and under parts. The grommet can slip out of its hole pretty easy like this.
