Running lighting wire for 3/4 roof rack
First post.
Anyone got pictures/ideas that they have run cables for cables up the barn doors preferably without drilling. Rear mounted 3/4 rack with a single rack for the front spottie. Didnt want to run the entire loom up the snorkle for the 3 at the back. Got a bit of an idea how I am gonna do it just seeing it there are better ideas than mine
Cheers

I was reading on a forum ,that you can buy a bolt with a hole in the center so you can run a wire through it .
It was holding the spare tyre on the right hand door ,but their light was mounted to the spare wheel carrier .
Hope that helps .

The bolt you mention would me a 10mm x 1.25 pitch eash enough to drill a holl down the middle.
They drilled 3/16th hole under my rear wheel bracket and fitted a 1/8th rubber grommet.
Loving the hole in the bolt though.

I tried running a wire in through the rear door but found the
water would "wick" down the cable and into the cargo area
