For those who have mounted their ignition box under the dash or anywhere inside the cab did you relocate your coil also?? If so did you use a firewall connector or just a grommetted hole in the fire wall to connect the coil to the distributor ???

I mounted my MSD 6AL-2 ignition on an aluminum bracket I made which replaced my factory glove box. The ignition and my fuse box from the American Autowire Highway 15 system are both mounted there. I mounted my coil under my dash, securing the bracket with bolts that go through the cowl right under the windshield wiper linkage and not through the firewall. I used an MSD 8211 Firewall Feed-thru to get the coil wire through the firewall. It's an inexpensive, clean, and solid solution. To me putting a hole and a grommet there and just feeding a wire through it was not an acceptable solution.
