    I have found the grommet through the passenger side firewall where the wire harness and vaccuum line are routed through. My question is what did you guys do from there? Remove part of the grommet to fit the sensor wires through? Drill an additional hole?

    Thanks!

    I used the grommet on the D/S by the brake booster.

    Get a wire coat hanger, untwist the top, fold it out flat, electrical tape the wire to the coat hanger 1/3 of the way up, stick the not taped end of the hanger through the hole, guide it through from both ends.

    Got the wideband installed and thought I would share:

    I ended up going through the grommet on the floor in front of the passenger seat. There is a rubber grommet in the floor board just in front of the passenger seat. Pulled out the grommet and modified it for a wire, and cut a small slot in the carpet for the sensor wire. Then routed the wire up through the center consol next to the shifter and then up behind the glovebox to get to the drop power source. Overall, worked out pretty well. I can post up some pics soon.
