Finally getting around to wiring my KC's, but I'm still stuck on how to run wires for the switch inside the cabin. Can anybody offer suggestions, pictures preferred!

I was thinking of running them thru the same little rubber boot the hood latch cable goes thru, if I could get them jammed in there and pull out the other side.

I have a few of these nice grommets from previous installs that I could also use, problem is there isn't enough room under the hood or dash to fit a drill!

I will have to get you a picture, but of you look over at the passenger side of the KK, Look down by the exhaust header and by the O2 sensor, there is a boot that you can use that drop in just below the HVAC system inside the cab below the glove box. I cut a slit in the rubber and ran my wires through. The I used some black RTV to reseal the boot. I will get you a picture in just a few

You can see my yellow wire in the black with the white tracer harness just in front of my hand

I ran mine threw the grommet, the main wiring harness passes threw, by the steering wheel. It is 2 sided and worked great.
View from the engine compartment, just under the brake booster.

View from the inside next to the clutch pedal. Just above and to the left is the other one mentioned by Boblemoche.

I uses an awl to poke a small hole and pressed the wires threw.

Then I put the switches in the little compartment on the dash to the left of the steering wheel.

Slick trick with the switches, Scar0.

Thanks, I can be clumsy sometimes. This way I won't accidentally turn them on while on the road. lol
