Default Help with wideband install to get inside car

Just bought an AFX wideband and it has a nice display that I want to get inside the car for viewing. I have and '08 conv. vette and was wondering what is the best way to get the plug thru the engine compartment to the inside so I can mount the display. Looked around for a little bit and nothing really stuck out. Any help or a link would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Ken

I pulled out the battery. Behind it next to the cab filter I drilled ahole. It comes out right above the fuse box on the passenger floor. Worked for me

Thanks for the reply, did you happen to take any pics? I think you are talking about the little door with the 3 swing clamps? If no pics did you go left, right, above, below the filter door?

I brought the wideband wire up to behind the battery and through the rubber grommet there where the wiring harness comes through. It has to be cut and extended on the other side. I sent it under the dash and up the A-pillar where my XD-16 guage is:

Thanks for the feed back guys. I ended up going from under the car into and behind the wheel well cover then thru the door jam rubber gasket and put it in the glove box. Worked real well and is pretty clean and it stays further away from my headers now, versus going straight up into the top of the engine compartment.
