Personally, I would feed the wire though on the passenger's side. Because if you ever have to pull the motor, you are going to have to cut these to get it out. Behind the battery, there is another harness. if you remover the tape, you can push the wires though the grommet with a coat hanger and a little lube (WD40, etc)

Pull the A-Pillar trim off and you will see the room you are looking for.

You really should tap the end of the fuel rail for this. The Fuel line is the metal line connected to the fuel rail. You would be cutting this to T it.

Do you need to touch it while driving? I have seen them mounted under the steering column, but for me that would never work. Your location depends on your size and if you need to touch it while driving.

Can't you read? The thread you linked stated "All 3 of these connectors are recessed male 1/4" quick-connects". So you don't need MALE connectors, you need Female connectors


Now for my questions, where are you going to put 7 gauges in the car? Why in the hell do you need them anyway?
