Need help with JB4 Install

How do you route the control module through the upper firewall to get under the ECU area cover?
I don't see any openings to route it under ECU cowl.
Thanks!!

In the edge of the cowl where the center straight portion bends/angles there is a sure in the front side.
Undo that and the 2 pieces are also double sided taped to each other, pull it apart and route through there
You can see the silver screw heads in this photo
