Wondering where a good point of entry if there is one to get the wiring into the cabin??

Thanks.

I ran mine up the passenger side of the engine bay, under the coolant reservoir, and into the cabin right under the wiper cowl area by the top of the passenger fender.

I always come up through the shifter panel. It'll run the wiring right into the center console, so there's no drilling or anything.

If you look at Ants HOWTO on Meth kit installation, you can see how he ran all the wiring into cabin and provider power to it etc... I have done it the same way for my Meth and i ran all the wideband stuff right next to it.. and location of my wideband is in driver side header. My wideband Innovate controller is right under dash by OBD-2 connector... This way when i plug in my hptuners into obd-2 my plug for wideband is also there.

I hope that makes sense.

Here is HOWTO i am talking about

Finally got it and will start working on this by this weekend. Is there an entry grommet there or is that where I would have to drill? Also do you know if there is an ignition power under the dash, or a 12v source? I can always put a toggle switch in. Trying to avoid going all they way to the rear because its already crowded due to me adding aftermarket amps/controllers.

Thanks man,am going to look at that.

Do I have to do anything like removing the fender barriers or remove the coolant/oil reservoir? I have a dry sump. All i can really see in that area is the cabin filter.

Ghostnotes

I just don't see where it goes in..

Its a Z51 if it matters.

I would suggest against toggle switch for wideband. You will forget to turn it on or off from time to time.. and wideband sensors don't like to be turned off if the car is running.. i believe it damages the sensors it self. check your manufactures installation manual, they usually call it out..

I removed the windshield fluid tank and unbolted the bottom of the fender and pulled the fender out. Drilled a hole next to the grommet. Easy and had plenty of room for wideband and Allky vacuum tube.

Ghostnotes

That does not seem too bad.
Does anybody have any advice on getting the cables into the cubby?

Where are you guys grabbing power, from the fuse box in the engine bay?

I'd get some rubber grommet and drill a hole in the firewall. It's so much easier to fix issues later on without any complications of wires being messed up due to time. Just my 2 cents.

Chazzmania

Just use a putty knife to trim the rubber some use to long rope if you need to run multiple lines. If the rubber grommet comes out use a deep socket to pull in back in place if you can't by hand. For power run to the back of the car fuse box location, and use a fuse jumper cable. @FYREANT do you remember the fuse number?

FYREANT

I don't unfortunately. Been a few years since I did it. I don't have the car anymore either.. lol

Chazzmania

That's a sad day in C7 history lol

I think its like 38 or 34 something like that
