Default Help with wide band install

Anyone know where the best place is to run the wires into the cabin for the wide band gauge install. The bung for the sensor is on the drivers side forward of the cats, also, which is the best wire to tap for switched power to the gauge.

Thanks for all you help and any visuals would be very helpful.

I cut a notch out of the rubber cover so the harness would clear without getting pinched and ran them through the center console to the passenger footwell and wired it to the accessory plug near the bcm... I think earlier c5's had this plug and later c5's did not

Where did you tap in for power to the gauges. Pictures are helpful.
