running the nitrous line

Where do you guys run the line? The bottle is going in the spare tire well. I am having a hard time finding a place to get through the firewall. Are there any spare gromets in the firewall to allow access?

i did not know that.. thanks

so run it to the pass seat, then out the bottom, then up beside the engine? I was hoping for one right through the firewall, but that will work i guess

If memory serves me right, isnt there a grommet or drain plug in the spare tire well/trunk area that you can use and then just run the line under the car to the engine?

Yeah there is, I did that with my first line and it worked for a while but it got to close to the exhaust and ruined the line, Now it is running down the pass side of the car and throught the PCM area under the dash.
