[MV] Grommet Locations on MB Firewall

Recently acquired a firewall padding kit for my MB. The kit includes a set
of rubber grommets of different size IDs (7 each 1/2 inch, 1 each 5/8 inch,
1each 3/4 inch, and 2 each 3/16 inch). I know where a couple of these go
(like 2 of the 1/2 inch for tool box & oil filter bracket; and the 3/4 inch
for spark plug wire).

However, not sure which holes the others go in, and in some cases I don't
recall what is to pass through the hole (which wire sets, cables, etc.).
When looking at the firewall from jeep, I have 9 holes going from right to
left.

(Three close together on right, three more in right-center area all at same
relative height, one to left- center a little higher that others, and
finally 2 on left at same relative height as the other 6. -- Note, the
padding on the inside of the firewall does not have cut-outs for these last
two holes.)

(1) Can one of you go out and look at the firewall of your jeep, and tell me
what goes where? -- e.g., Which wires or cables, and the size of the
grommet IDs that go in each hole.

(2) Is anything intended to go through either of these two holes on the
left?

Thanks in advance!

Enjoy your day, hopefully in a 1945 (MB) jeep!
