Default KC Driving Lights

Can anyone recommend the best place to run wires through the firewall on a 2013 auto trans? Adding KC driving lights and need advice on wiring and where to mount a switch without making it look bad.

My 08 has a hole that is for the clutch master ( mines a/t) so I use that. It's to the right of the brake booster.

I ran mine through the passenger side. Went through the right side cowl vent through spray foam. Had to take off side panel of interior dash. If you look at Project-JK you can use that as a reference and he will show you where to go through. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info. Installed KC 100 watt driving lights this weekend on the windshield mount. Found the firewall penetration you mentioned on the driver side. They look awesome, thanks again for the help.

I mounted my switch in the dash panel under the steering wheel. Looks factory installed.
