Okay I got the wires through the fire wall and tried to run the lights from my lightbar underneath the bracket and there is not enough space. Any ideas are welcome.

What size wire are you running? Mine fit back there no problem... You have to run the wire with the bracket loose. Then tighten it down... It's kind of a pain

Sorry about the delay been hectic at work lots of people taking vacation. There is no way to run them behind the brackets the brackets do not leave the room that is on yours it's a real pain in the but. I still haven't found a way to run them yet.

Default Best wiring route through 2014 JKU firewall with manual transmission?

I have the same issue, but unlike your automatic, where you went through the firewall is my clutch. Any help from anyone is greatly appreciated. I am waiting on SPOD to reply.

Just pull the side panel off the dash and go through the hole filled with Styrofoam. This is the passenger side but the drivers side is the same.
