Why on earth would you do that?? No reason to micky-rig it just because you don't know how to route the wire, thats what these forums are for afterall arent they?

Sorry I cant help ya 73X, I am sure someone will chime in though.

Thanks luvmoparz, I will keep looking, if I find a pic I will post it also so everyone can see. I dont think smellslike1974 likes me too well, LOL, not a big deal. I guess I could just drill a hole, why did'nt I think of that before asking for the right location.

Thanks Guys!

Now wait a minute,keep doing some research first,I wouldnt want you to make a mistake because of me,lol
Saying that,unless your making the car all the way original I dont really see why making one tiny hile in the firewall would be such a lawbreaker,lol

Never said it was a lawbreaker, he posted because he wanted the correct location. If it didn't matter to him, the question wouldn't have been posted. Punching the new hole, I don't have a problem with, but if you can put it in the factory location (which may mean punching a new hole anyway), why not do that?
