Default Where to run a nitrous line????

Im having trouble finding a place to run my nitrous line through the firewall. I dont want to drill a hole and not be able to grab it from the side. Its an 01 Z28 and so far i have the line along the inside of the rocker panel, to the spare tire location. Where did you 4th gen f-bodies run your line?

There is a rubber grommet on the passenger side firewall. Right above the carpet line of the floorboard. There is already a bundle of wires run through there. You'll need to unbolt your computer and set it out of the way, so you can grab it once you get it through that grommet...

I ran my line under the car and use rubber clips screwed into the body to secure it place. Really easy to remove if necessary.

i think tracks require you to run it outside the car IIRC but I ran mine through the same place (pass. side hole under the glove compartment)

I have an 01'. I ran mine outside of the car right along with the fuel lines. when it got up towards the front, I ran it with the fuel lines inside the heat shield.
here is where it came out.

My bottle is in the spare tire wheelwell, line ran down the passenger side under the plastic, then over to the drivers side for my pressure gague, then threw the rubber groment in the drivers door and up into the hood. If you open the door up all the way in my 01 WS6, the steel braided line hits and starts to mess up the paint and actually put indentions in the door, but that is only if i swing it all the way open, however my buddies 2000 z28 has no problems with this.

I ran mine all the way through the car and out the big grommet on the passenger side. I didn't like running it under the car because it gets the line dirty.
