Default Running Wires

Hey all,

Looking to see how people have run wires both on the chassis rail, and inside the cabin. Mounting my ARB compressor(will do a build thread soon) in the rear storage bin, and need to run power wires and the switch harness wires. Do people just pull up the carpet or what? Let me know what you've done, pictures are a bonus!

Cheers,
Zack

Good call, but the last time I looked the trailer harness was using a much smaller gauge power wire.

Depending on the gauge I usually run it along the carpet edge. But from the cargo area, above the headliner and down the A-pillar might be cleaner install.

I run 12 gauge along the frame then back up in for the 2400 watt power converter. Its good to be able to run dyna lights on location or the polaroid processor for the new 8x10 polaroid.
