Running cab light wiireing?/ - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just ran the wire for a set of cab lights on my 72, got it across the roof section ok. I ran the power wire down the drivers side A pillar and I cant find where it comes out. Actually I ran the flexiable section of an old choke cable down since it was more flexable and less likely to kink, but cant find where it ends up..anyone done this before?

wow, you got further than I did. We won't talk about where I ran my wire.

Hmmn- I wonder- does it come out anywhere? Maybe in the cowl/ vent? Or dead ends? Could you go over the door opening & down the back?

Lol, believe me it wasnt easy!! I wish now that I had gone a different route.

Jeff, Ive wondered about between the cowl vent, reached in as far as I could and didnt feel anything. Maybe on the outside of the cowl between it and the fender?
