996 Cab Engine Firewall

I'm in the process of installing the IMS Guardian and I've torn apart quite a bit of the interior but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the wires through the firewall or from anywhere in the rear part of the cabin to the engine. I've spent a lot of time in and out of the car trying to figure out any path. I'm really not comfortable with drilling -- especially since I'm not even sure where to drill! Am I missing something? Does anyone have a diagram for dummies (like me) on how to do this? Please keep in mind that my car is a Cab.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

-Eric

If you follow both thick wire bundles, left in the engine compartment, you have to see the grommets through the rear firewall right? Make a small hole in it and use it as a transit for the additional wires.

Eric, if your willing to do that much work just to install the IMSG, why don't you do the IMSB retrofit since there are many options now?
