Ok, i just order my volt gauge this afternoon. I am not worried because its an esay gauge to setup.. however where is the hole in the firewall that i need to run the wire through? If anyone has a picture of where it is and a little step by step on how to get there it would be awesome.

Thanks guys. -Chris.

no. extending two wires is all that's required. (constant(+) and Negative(-)) wire them directly to the battery's terminals.
