You can flip,off the end of a stalk to make a path to the dash. Zip tie those wires to stuff so they don't get loose in your engine compartment.

Look for a rubber grommet that has a bunch of rubber stalks on it...looks like a Darlek

So i guess this is under the dash to the left of the steering wheel?
And i guess i have to take the under dash cover off then?
If this is right and if i remember right i dont remember the size of that screw head that removes that cover, it was a star type right or no?

That's probably because I've been driving one since 2015 and nobody has offered to pay me yet.
