Hey guys, Porky here..

so I'm getting ready to mount the two air vent brackets/knobs under my dash near the radio and I'm wondering how do i route the cables to both the driver and passenger side vent flaps. Do i run the cables through the firewall pad so they are not visible and then run them to the small hole near the vent covers or do i run the cables on the outside of the firewall pad (cables visible then). It seems as though the cables have retaining hardware for pushing the firewall retainer screws through them to secure them to the firewall, but again not sure which firewall holes or if cables go in front visible or behind (hidden) firewall pad.

thanks
porky

I've always had'em over the top of the pad to run behind it to the kick area

That's correct, they were installed after the pad was put on...they are visible when installed as originally done at the factory.
