hole saw

I used a 7/8" holesaw and cut just above and to the right (passengers side) of where the steering rack was. It ended up being just to the right of where the accelerator pedal is inside the car. Than you just have to go buy a grommet or one might have come with your gauges to keep the wires from rubbing the metal.

worked great, I ran the wires for my water temp, oil pressure and 02 sensors through it.

good luck

Look right under your brake booster...there's a big 2" rubber grommet right there..you can snake your wires right thru the middle of it....

Edit...its to the right of the booster...you can see mine (blk&wht) coming thru it...you can peel it right away from the body, cut a small slit, snake your wires and tuck it back in...
