pic request: gauge wire routing on top of dash

I'm gonna install some gauges in a rexpeed triple gauge pod on top of the dash.
What's the best wat to route all the wiring? I am thinkin of routin it into the hole between the 2 defroster vents. How do I access the underside of that hole?

Pics of examples would be much appreciated.

I have that pod. I actually drilled a hole in the dash because I have an extra dash. I did not want to have any wires visible. So, if you plan on keeping it that way, do as I did.

I wouldn't drill a hole in the dash. Do this.

I think that's what he was planning on doing but doesn't know how to do it.

Nice boltz, that's exactly how I want to do it. What's the best way to get wires through that hole? Like how did u route the wires on the bottom side?

what boltz did is the cleanest way

you have to fish the wires from the driver's side foot well

tape a hanger to the wires and try and fish it down to the footwell

that'd be the easiest way to do it
