    I'm about to install my meth kit, and I want to run the wiring into the car along with my WB and vacuum line for the vac/boost gauge. I've heard of people using existing areas to feed wires/etc. into but I'm wondering, since I have so many, I may just be better off drilling a new hole, put a rubber grommet in and running all my wires into it for the interior. If you suggest this, could you post any pics or how to's? Thanks.

    Between the 1-1.5" hole on the driverside (plug) and P100 down on the passenger floor. You should be able to get all that plug through there.

    I have 4 gauge amp wire, and LC1 (large plug) wideband on the passenger side only.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Thanks for the input Bill. Could you tell me what they're near so I have a better idea of where to specifically look? Pics would be great if you have them.
