leaking water through firewall

I hope this is ok to post in this forum, I just figured it best fit it......When ever it rains I get a lot of water leaking in through the fire wall were the power wire to my amp runs through, I was wondering if theres something they make that can stop that or like some sort of gasket that will keep the water from rolling in on the power wire. any hellp would be great and If this isnt the right spot to post thisfeel free to move it

You didn't use a gromet when you installed your power wire?

Im not the one who installed it so im not sure, I just took off the underdash panels and had my girlfriend poor water from the outside with me up under there so I could look and see where it was leaking from and its comming from where the power wire and other interior wires come in from the engine bay. where can I get a gromet for it?
