Well, there are some "pass through" wires on the driver side firewall.

On my ZF6 truck and for my three pillar gauges, I simply made my own passthrough in the firewall above the pedals and behind/under the dashboard. Been working well for many, many years. On the passenger side there is a passthrough in the footwell near the down pipe or you can come through near the heater core behind the glove box.

The shift cable boot makes a nice one for the EGT thermocouple and the transmission temperature.

I know, you're just doing fuel.

The plastic cover for the unused clutch master cylinder is always a good go-to on an automatic truck.

I like to go up through the auto shifter grommet on the floor right behind the accelerator pedal. Very hard for water to flow up into the cab that way.

I use the same location on a manual truck. Drill a hole in the floor behind the accelerator pedal. Works great
