Gauge and pod install....

**Mr. Luos** · 08-20-2005, 01:53 PM

The wiring is no problem for me. My problem....through the firewall.

I haven't gone out and looked, but I need a decent amount of wiring through to the engine bay. Do I need to drill, or is there some openings already there???

Anyone??

I drilled the a-pillar pod today and got it ready to install. I just need the wiring through the firewall. Advice???

I cannot speak to your car specific but from the years and various models I have installed many guages on.....I drill a hole and put a rubber gromet in it....just have never found the perfect pre-drilled location yet

Crap.

I just hate drilling.

Something like that.

I just can't see putting holes in the firewall for shit like this. Oh well....I will figure something out. I have plenty of time over the next two days.

I have a triple pillar pod, and I routed all of my wires through a factory hole on the passenger side of the car. If you open the hood, and unbolt the computer up by the firewall(two 10mm bolts), and pull it out of its hole (no need to disconnect the wires, although I always go ahead and disconnect the battery just in case). Then you'll see a factory gromet you can use.

Good luck!
