through the cable grommet on the left hand side(as you look at the engine bay) that goes through the bulhead into the dash,i taped stiffish wire to the hose and put that through at first,then pulled through the hose into the footwell then up through the back of the dash.there are pics on the site somewhere.

Yep thats the way i did it! but i took the fuse box out so i could see a bit better...

mine didn't have the grommit so went in next to the wiring loom.used a wire coat hanger and taped the hose to it.take the fusebox cover out as in Pabs guide.i also ran the pipe along the top of the bulkhead rather than through the engine bay as i melted my 1st pipe

i went through the black plastic blanking box under the firewall just in front of the steering wheel and its worked a treat, no trying to fish anything, its all very straight forward.
