Default rough country light bar mount and light bar wiring

So I added a rough country light bar mount and discovered a lack of detail on the internet about how most people ran the wire. I found one thread that discussed it but no pics, a video that totally skips this part, and a little misleading info about mounting the wire under the mount. So here are some pics of how I ran my wire and kept it from rattling. I also reused the factory ground post by using some spare nuts that came with my light bar (I used the 4 wheel parts "trail master" brand 50" light bar). You will see very small zip ties that I put on the wire and cinched down behind the bracket to keep the wire in place near the windshield.

If anyone knows how to rotate that pic, let me know. I tried advanced, then image settings, but it wouldn't pull up any text so I wasn't sure how to rotate it.

Big thanks goes out to Rich who let our Jeep live in his shop a couple days and did a bunch of the work including reinforcing the brackets.
