    Looks great... Obviosly lots of silicone where it goes into the airbox will keep the water out.

    Howdy mate,

    I did a quick write up on how I ran my light bar to my roof the other week, no need for drilling holes or running in the snorkel.

    IMO buy yourself a wiring harness for $35 and save yourself a world of time/trouble.

    A mate and I knocked mine on the roof, ran all the cables over a few brews and probably took 2 hours between the both of us,

    Photos/writeup found here:
    http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...ht=supa+centre

    If you have any questions, give us a hoy,

    Hope this helps,

    Cheers,
    -Westie

    Out through the same bonnet/guard gap. Up behind the snorkel in spit flexi conduit via the rain gutter. Very easy, no drilling, and not that noticeable.

    Thanks @mudski Does that let any water into the cabin if it rains? I would be worried about water running down the wiring...

    Thanks @Toy-Eta I have a supa centre illuminator bar so your instructions will be really handy.

    I have only been a forum member for a couple of days but there is so much good info on here. Glad I joined!!!
