Default 2 Q's About Electric Cutout

How long do the the bolts need to be on the cutout of the car? I believe I have a flowtech right now, and don't know how much thread I need to bolt up an electric?

Where is the best place to run the wires up inside the car? I know you hook + to the ASR, - to ashtry, but was wondering what was the best way to get them up into the car. Thanks.

The bolts on the cutout should be long enough already. The one on mine were long enough to put on some flat and split washers and still have some thread left over. I ran my wires though the rubber plug that is right under the rear passnger side seat. Actually it's more where the floor mat is where you put your feet. From there I ran the wire under the carpet into the center console and put the switch in the ashtray. Remove the shifter boot and you can guide the wires under the dash to the ASR switch. Just pull off the panel that the ASR switch is on and then you can access the wires easily.
