Where is the easiest place to run wires from the engine compartment to the inside?I've got my line lock running through the hood release cable, and that was PITA to get my hands in there. I am in the process of hooking up my window switch & purge, and need to find an easier way to run the power wires. Pics would be appreciated.

there's a hole in the firewall right in the driver side of the engine bay.. not sure what wire is running through there but that's where i just ran my nitrous wires from... ill take some pictures later..

If you look up under the passenger side, on the bulkhead, you will see a nice oval grommet with wires coming through. Typically, there is an empty nipple there that could be utilized.

Yep, that's where I ran the wires for my line lock and 2 step. There's one on each side.

Ok I see them inside the car, now where do I access those in the engine compartment?

You can also access one under the drivers side, above the brake and clutch. Then if you peel back the drivers side fender well lining, and this is what you will see. The green wire you see is from my Raptor, going right into the open area under the master brake cylinder....

Thanks for all the help now I've 2 good spots to get the wires from the switches to the engine compartment, my next question is the fuse block in the car on the passengers side has several unused slots, do these have power running to them?Can I simply use an add a fuse to tap into them?

Yes. Just check your owners manual, and it will tell you which slot is for what, and from that, you can tell if they are switched or unswitched.....
