Default Firewall/Hole/boostgauge/HELP

So....
I want to put a boost gauge in the center counsel infront of the shift ****....
I dont know how is should go about geting the line from the back of the gauge to the engine bay. I want to go with the easiest path that requires the least amount of work from that spot. I was thinking that i could run the line under the interior panels to a location by the pedals and then up through the dash and out by the main fuses spot but that is a very far path for the line to run.
Thanks
Nick

One more thing for the boost gauge with vaccum will the vaccum tree under the throttle body cover show both boost and vacccum from one of the unused nippels. I know that there have been other posts on the boost gauge and its probly a dead topic but I need to know of few things.

If you look by the firewall under the brake booster there is a corigated cover with a rubber cap on it with nipples coming off of it. Usually nothing runs through there. But that goes to inside under the dash. Run the hose through there. Also yes one of those porst are fine.
