Rear Lights

Haynes build is progressing slowly, now coming to the bit I was dreading electrics.

I was wondering what is the best way to route the rear light cables from the rear wings to the bodywork. I was thinking of bonding some tubing to the rear of the inside of the wing and feed the cables through. Any tips??

Cheers

A hole and grommet to the rear of the tub. With waterproof connectors inside the tub to the lights which can be unplug when removing arch. The cables on my lights (Land Rover) were already waterproofed so didn't need to fit inside tubing. The cables are supported with "P" clips attached to the rear of the light fixing.

seven core trailer cable is good.
