Tunnel - Firewall Holes

Any one have a photo or drawing reference of all of the Tunnel - Firewall holes labeled for use - purpose?

Some good info here on the conduits, but not the other holes:
OOOOOPS, What's in the tunnel?

I've searched about every combo of description query...no joy.

Thanks!

Jim

What is the year of your car and do you have a pic to show what you are looking for?

Here's a pic.
Assumption is the top right hole is for the main wire harness.
What's the oval hole at bottom right?

Goldrunner,

That 8mm stud to the right in your photo is the transmission ground strap connection point. The flat disc-space around it should be bare metal to insure a good ground. If you don't clean it off, you will have no end of electrical problems.
