I need a way to run wires into the cabin!

Yes, I've done the search. I've tried everything I found.

I've got a manual trans, so the clutch master socket is out. That hole on the passenger side, that "comes out by the transmission tunnel" I've tried that one too, nothing. I've torn half my dash out around that hole.

I mess with this dilemma for a few hours every week or so. Today I spent over 3 hours on it. Trying that "hole by the accelerator pedal". Either I can't find anything or my car is some magical super non penetrable design.

Goddamn it. I'm able to build a track specific car in a fab shop. But I cant install a boost gauge on my daily driver. My head hurts. If anyone has some insight I'll gladly take it. Its getting so frustrating I'm almost at the "drill a hole" stage.

Thanks.

Huh are you serious?

Mate there are plenty of grommets that you can simply pull out then add a little hole into and run your wires through.

Get a torch and look harder.... HINT - there are normally OTHER wires also using this grommet !

Otherwise start drilling and BUY a grommet to seal it up

There's the ECU loom on the passenger side. But I can't get the hose from behind all the crap in my dash there.

Drivers side, below and to the left of the brake booster. Big ass grommet, can't miss it.
