along the steering column...remove the ring that secures the gasket and pull back the gasket, you have plenty of space to run wires through there...lost of space...just make sure the way you run your wires will not interfere with the free movement of the steering column and replace the gasket and the ring if you can, the ring is very precise so maybe after you send few wires through there you mihg thave to use a zip tie to hold the gasket in place....

Thanks guys... I saw the thread (somewhere else) about the glove box... but its close to impossible to get there...
It looks like in the foot well, where the clutch would be you could drill through...
kublkmax, that would be cool if you could take pics inside the car and engine bay. Thanks guys!

That is what these pics are showing...
Driver side foot well... Get up underneath there and you will see the exact image above.
