Recommended wiring from exterior to interior

Hi all,

I am looking for some recommendations of how and where to get wiring from the outside of the car in.

I have wiring for an electronic cutout and a speedo adjuster that I need to get in the car.

I was hoping to get the wiring into the console area. I was thinking of cutting a hole in the tranny tunnel, shrink tubing all the wiring into one tube so I just need the one penetration, then using a grommet, maybe filling the grommet with RTV sealant.

I would think there would be a better or more "proffesional" way to do this, or better yet an existing penetration to use somewhere.

Any recommendations are appreciated. Would be interrested to know where those of you already w/ cutouts ran the wiring...

Profession Lesson

The most professional way is to use a racing flange mount, and a cable racing connector.

These are vibration proof.

Get an oversized set so in the future if you want to add more goodies it’ll be easy.


Happy Racing!

Didn't see much on this in Summit, quick google search pulled me up to a supplier, but any recommendations on places to get this stuff, more like chain stores of some sorts? Otherwise I'll try the supplier google brought me to.

Thanks!
