Which firewall plug?
 
I'm in the process of installing a Quad Standard adjustable performance module and need to go thru one of the firewall plugs. I have a 2004.5 CTD Quad Cab dually.
There appear to be 4 existing plugs. On the left is the steering column plug.
On the far right a lot of wires plus a large bundle of wires go thru a plug.
In between and high is a single plastic wire shroud in a plug. Then in between lower is a solid cable thru a plug.

The plug on the far right appears large and best but is hard to see inside the cab.

Which plug have you used?

Thanks

I used the plug where the emergency brake cable runs through. I put a slit in the crease of the plug and have run all wires (Commander, Xzillaraider, and offroad lights) through at that point.

i used the grommet where the main harness is, just move the control module below the ebrake, and make a small careful slit.

Same here. Cut it a little and it's easy to get to and big enough to run lots of wires thru for all kinds of stuff.

there is even a little bit of a nipple like protrusion(behave fellas, i am serious) that you can run a zip tie around to keep it sealed.

Is this on the firewall? If so what is the location?

Thanks

firewall, drivers side, behind the ebrake foot pedal. there is a module mounted vertically. gently move the module aside, there is a clip to the inboard side, and viola! your grommet awaits.

Thanks!

Followed your advice and the grommet with the main electrical harness worked great.

Thanks again!
