TPI swap into 69 camaro - where to cut firewall?

Can anyone recommend the best place to cut the firewall in a 69 camaro to pass the TPI harness into the passenger compartment? I'm thinking somewhere above the heater box behind the glove box.

VR,

The stock routing was through a hole on the passenger side of the firewall, right up against the fender. The computer is under the dash, and the wiring basically goes 'around' the firewall.

Need to keep it 3rd gen related. Using 3rd gen parts doesn't qualify with the topic posted.

Sorry.
