Assuming this is a 4.2, the main power cable comes from the main bus bar under the heater and runs along the engine frame, around the bottom of the picture frame and thence to the starter. The ignition wire goes through the firewall from the dash loom.
If it's a 3.8 there's a starter switch mounted on the engine frame.

Hi
Thank you very much Andrew,it confirms what I thought, the problem I saw a pic with the cable coming out of the bulkhhead, which confused me.

Kind Regards
