Well I'm guessing you have 4 lights. So i'd wire the inside two together and the outside two. As for the hole I drilled about 2 or 3 inches away from the rail. Use wire hider to make it look nicer. I have heard of people going under the rail... hopefully they will chime in also...

If it were mine, I would remove the DS roof rail, drop the headliner and drill a hole in between the two mounting bolt holes and through the plastic cover that conceals the mounting bolts. It's far less ghetto that a hole with globs of silicone in the middle of the roof or worse yet.... cheesing it through the door jam... less fire-hazzardy too.

I'd say that way would be better if you really want everything hidden. However... I would not call the through the roof way ghetto. It's functional rather than asthetic. Yes you can have both. I like mine just the way it is though
