Default running wires through fuel tank lid?

i have 2 Bosch 044 fuel pumps that im going to use in-tank and need to run the wiring from the pumps through the lid, ATL FUEL CELLS only have single wire bulkhead and are $17 each but i am looking for a multiple wire bullhead or if anyone has any other way of running wires through the lid or have any pics that would help, thanks.

good question. in for the answer.

I've managed to do this, but do not feel like my method is worth posting as it is a bit ghetto..

I have a heavy duty grommet with fuel injection grade hose stuffed tightly though it. filled the hose with some gas resistant sealer and fished the wire though it (while still wet) I still get a hiss every time I unscrew the gas cap.

Great link. I should probably revise my sending unit.
