Default Need fuel pressure gauge help (electric gauge)

Has anyone installed a autometer electronic fuel pressure gauge? The instructions say to drill a 1" hole in the firewall so you can put in a grommet and run the wires through. Does anyone have any pictures of where they drilled the hole or ran the wires? My dad started drilling a hole just to the right of the gas pedal with a small bit, but he was having a hard time going through. The grommet probbaly wont fit if we did make it through. Any pictures or advice would help alot. Im installing it on a Honda Del Sol.

all my wires go through the big grommet on the left side, that is untill i put 0ga to my amp, but there is 3 connectors top of the strut tower on the d/s and just slit it there, be careful to not cut any wires, and fish them through with a coat hanger.

if it is an electric gauge, you can lengthen them. solder the joints and shrink wrap them. youll be ok.

Well i wired it thought the hole by the battery and it just fit. It was the perfect size. If it was an inch shorter it wouldnt work. :D
