I don't have a picture of it if you really want one I can take one later buy there is a small grommet between the e brake and brake pedal. It is just a tiny bit higher than the level of the pedals. I ran my trigger wire to my relay through this location then under the carpet in front of the pedals and into the cup holder center console thing on the floor

I have a plan and everthing for the job together, being in Ottawa ON the salt on the road is killer so I am holding off a bit yet. When I take the truck back to BC this summer I won't have to worry about the extra wear and tear the stuff they put on the road here will have on the bar and the lights.
