Guys, I am about to finally install my center gauge pod in my car, but as I bought this item second hand, I was wondering if any of you would have an idea how to install the gauge wires from the center speaker of the dash to the engine bay. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I think you might need to take your Dashboard apart depending the type of vehicle and year in order to gain access through the center speaker/cover.

Any finished pics?
I actually haven't installed them yet.  I'm planning on installing this spring

I just popped the speaker cover off like in the first attached thread, removed the speaker, drilled a hole and fished them up from below, then put the speaker back in.
I cant remember whether I brought them up from the passenger or drivers side but you can remove the glove box for more access.

No pics because my sho had a misshap a while back and IDK where my pics are at from when I did the install. I fished the wire up through the dash from behind the radio. there are a few spots with clearance IF you take your time, just gotta look for em. I took the radio out to make it easier to route the wiring, and basically ended up following the speaker wiring. I ran ground from the cigarette lighter plug to make wiring less of a pain.
