Light installation question

Just ordered piaa 520's to be mounted near my windshield. My question is, is there an easy route to get the wiring into the interior for the switch?

Thanks-

Just below and outboard of the brake booster there is a foam grommet. You can route your switch wires thru that.

Take out the glove box. Behind it you will find a hole with a foam plug that can be enlarged to fit almost any wire. The good thing about it is that it is directly behind the battery

You're welcome. Both instrument panel end covers are held in with snap clips. Gentle prying will take them off and give you access to the interior side of the foam patches.

Another tip to help is to make a hook with a coat hanger and tie the wires around it to pull it through
