Hole In FIREWALL???!?!?!?

Is there a hole to route my Pyro Wires and Boost Tubes through or do I need to drill one? I sure am missing one if there is one, LOL

there are plenty grommets on the drivers side firewall that you can run cables or tubing trough. I usually use a 3-4 ft piece of a metal fish or a coat hanger will work also,, Tape your wires or tubing to one end and poke the other end through the grommet and then pull them through, be carefull to to poke any other hoses or cables. hope this helps.,..

I poke a small hole in the gromet that the steering shaft goes through. It's plenty big enough and easy access both inside and out. You may want to try something different if you are building a "Show" truck!

there's already 4 or 5 wires runing thru a grommet that are pig-tailed on either side of the firewall for just this purpose....
check it out !

You don't have to punch anything any more !

(although if you use one of them your warranty will be voided !)
just kidding !

Now that's smart. I always wished they would run wires thru there for future use.
