Drill two holes one in the firewall at the lower end of the brake pedal and one in the front. Run the cable between the two hole cut to length.

you make drilling holes in the firewall to sound so easy. I scoped it out when I had my brake buddy, couldn't see anywhere to do it, (have you seen a modern cars firewall lately?) and just ran the wires out from the hood, into the door.

Yes, I looked at quite a few new car firewalls when shopping for a new toad. I did not see any that could not be fitted with a ReadyBrake cable setup. The hole does NOT need to line up perfectly with the brake pedal arm. It can be offset either way up to the width of the brake pedal. Even double firewalls are not difficult to deal with.
