Bro,
Quad injections are the easiest, IMO. To find the right spot, place your hand flat against the top of your leg where it joins to your hip. You want to shoot just below where your fingers touch your quad an inch or 2 outside from the center. That area of your quad usually feels somewhat flat, so it is relatively easy to find. There are more nerves in your quads then in your glutes, but it is still not likely that you will hit one. Also, if your legs are no too tan , you should be able to see the blood vessels directly under your skin so you will not pass the needle through one of them. What type of pins are you using? LATE

No tendons to worry about, those are at the ends of your muscles. I checked out that spot injections site, and you really dont need to go that far to the side of your quad. The site where you can inject is fairly large, so don't worry about it. If you're still worried, hold the needle to your skin and push it in very slowing. That way if you touch a nerve you will feel the pain, and you can just pull the needle out before you damage it. 5/8" does seem a little short. I personally suggest at least one inch or larger for quads, but if you have low bodyfat they should work. Just make sure to aspirate first.
