RHD Firewall Routing?

RHD Firewall Routing?

Need to get vacuum line,wires etc. from the steering column on a right hand drive FD.
I know about the left fender grommet and punching a hole in the steering column gasket, but was wondering if anyone else knows of a better route, I've search here and web to found nothing. I do not want to drill!. Any better suggestions will be worth a pint if we ever meet. lol
cheers

Hey big guy, I was in that dilemma and unfortunately, the best solution i found after spending almost an hour upside down in my driverseat and back and forth between there and the engine bay was to unfortunately drill thru the firewall....Less issues with getting your vacuum hose to get kinked.
If you do drill, plan ahead to see what else you will need to run to save you holes in your immaculate firewall.

Cheers

^Thanks for answering, but I've decided to go the long route inside the dash to the left fender grommet. If that becomes problematic I'll drill but I'm trying to stay away from what will be the final solution!
