The Lokar is a nice piece, and not very expensive.

Lokar X4 like everyone else..
I just used an existing hole (it was square) that was in the firewall and inline with the pedal. I used a few larger washer on each side and bolted down the jam nut, ran the cable though the pedal eyelet.. then into the Lokar cable case and up to the Throttle Body and it was done.. (some cutting of the cable as needed) !

You can use the stock F-Body Cable as long as it reaches ok... I think others have used them.
