Default firewall connectors

Well im rewiring my 65 stang got universal harness summit was dirt cheap thats y i got it. Anyways what have people used to go through the fire wall as i have a few add ons and so i have a few more then the 8 wires the stock had. I want to use some sort of connector that is mountable to the firewall. Anyone else do this need about a 10 wire one might even do two connectors im talking about over by the master cylinder not the engine feed. Ive seen cannon plugs used but dont want to spend 80 dollars for that. A few wires are 10 gauge so must beable to accept that size atleast one.
Thanks

i managed to somehow use all the contacts.

i had emailed them about the largest size wire and i think they said 12 gauge (they responded quickly). that was a long time ago so my memory may be off.

i would have to look back at my wiring to see if the largest i used was 12 or 14 gauge. i had doubled up on wires where i was concerned about reliability or impedance.

it seems like i bought it from Summit.
