Finally worked up the enthusiasm to run the starter cable through the firewall and what a b**ch of a job that was! Glad that's now over, all smooth sailing from here.

20" Dark Agents on the way! Woooooo *cheesy grin* :D

Cable glands to be exact, i bought the two for $3.20, can get them from any electrical wholesaler.
