Install on A-pillar Gauges

There's probably another place I'm supposed to post this, but can anyone give me some tips on the easiest routing for the wires/apparatus coming out of the gauges from the A-pillar. I haven't taken it apart yet to see, but getting some prelaunch insight has always helped me. Is there a crevice where the A-pillar mouts where I can just route them? Do I need to drill?

Diesel Manors has a detailed install guide, click on installation sheets at the top of the home page. I used it when I did mine.

When you take your a pillar off, you will see a hole that leads down under the dash, then there is a grommet that you can use going into the engine bay.

Sweet! I really appreciate all the info! I'm just waiting to get some time to empty my tranny pan so I can drill a hole for the temp. sensor for my trans temp gauge. Then I can get cracking on the gauge install! Thanks, guys!
