Bulkhead grommet. Madman Install.
Installing my madman, does anyone know where the large bulkhead grommet lands on the dash side on a puma?

Seems to line up behind the instrument cluster...

If I take out the instrument cluster, can I get to back of the grommet to feed the wires through there into the engine bay?

Thanks.

If you’re double jointed yes Laughing

I have a set of mole poles and pull the wires through with it.

Ive sent a couple of wires through there. Easiest way was to get some stiff steel wire and push it through from the engine side. With the centre console and instrument cluster out you should be able to see your wire, wiggle/grasp it and pull it through into the cabin. You can then attach the wire you want to send back the other way and pull it through. I think it helped a lot if you can get someone else to assist so you have one person on each side. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS

It's probably just as easy to take the dash out. It's not as difficult as it looks.

The one on the passenger side is a bit easier to access from inside if feeding cables along the inside of the bulkhead is viable.

Yep, I’ve had the dash out a lot, good shout going into the passenger grommett instead,
was looking at that instead, less cables going in there as well.

Thanks
