Mudder, did you ever get me some pics? I was pretty busy this weekend with hardwood floors and homework but I found about two hours to work on it and I was getting dang frustrated so I stopped working on it. Basically I'm thinking in order to run the wire through the bars I'm going to end up uninstalling the bar completely just so I can get the wires through! I played around with a snake but couldn't find it when I was going down fromt he top, and couldn't make it all the way to the top when coming in from below! So for right now I've got the wires zip tied to the rollbar then running down between the bed and the cab, LOL. I'd prefer to not have to uninstall it completely (or even partially as its a total pain in the ***!) but if thats what it takes to make it look right I might spend a few hours some weekend when I don't have school the next day to work on that .

Not yet, been busy, but I will. Is there not already two holes on the top tube? On mine, there are two holes that have already been drilled? We ran the wires through there, and fished it on down with wire, or something my dad managed to get it down there.

yeah there is two holes pre-drilled into the top so that shouldn't be a problem (except I may have to enlarge one of them just a bit) the problem is getting it out the other end. I'm trying to avoid having to drill like a 1" hole just so I can get my fingers up in there to pull the wire through. tried running a snake upwards from the bottom and it just kept stopping where the bar does that stupid drastic bend, it wouldn't go any further no matter how much I cursed at it!
