Default I need Pics of Underside of Roof Rails

Does anyone have pics of the underside (inside cab) roof with the headliner removed? Preferably pics of where the roof rails mount.

I installed my new roof-mount light rack and am trying to plan out how to run the wires off the roof and into the cab. A few of you are suggesting running the wires through the roof rails and into the cab.

On the top side (outside) of the roof - the roof rails look as though they are in two sections. The main rail, which is hollow and the 90's that secure it to the roof (seen in pic below with the bolt protruding out) which are not hollow. Unfortunately... I was hoping to get the wires down through on of the 90s.

Pics are appreciated!!

What some people do who install an SD rack, or similar, is remove the OEM rails and run the wires down one of the holes left behind.

The way I see it I have two options:
Option 1.) drill through roof
Option 2.) not drill through roof

Looks like I'll have to get creative

if you dnt use your roof rails, I would drill through your mounting bolt . All you need is a steady hand or a drill press, then you can run the wire through, then connect your ground wire to the light bar.
