 Page 4 - Cable Route 1 March, 2003 
Cable Through Boot Cable Through Firewall
Cable runs through boot. And through the firewall.
I briefly considered running the cable straight down the shifter boot to the underside of the Jeep and then back up into the engine compartment. However, I only had 6 feet of shifter cable was was sure that would not be enough to reach the throttle body that way so I figured I should take the most direct route. Better to head right for the firewall.

I made small hole in the shifter boot and then snapped the boot out of the console so I could feed the cable forward toward the firewall. There is a rubber stopper in the firewall next to the heater output. A 3/16th drill bit made the perfect opening to allow the cable to route through to the engine compartment.
