It doesn't go back there.  Everything is in the panel and the timer
box connected to the speedo cable.  Note that the OXS and ALT lights
are cross-connected (to provide a bulb check for OXS) so that any
time the ALT light is on, the OXS light will also be on.

If you search back messages at subaruvanagon@yahoogroups.com (may
have to join?) there will probably be precise instructions.  Note
that that group is strictly for Subaru conversions, and they stay
strictly on topic.

Yours,
