I did the same thing when I installed Fog Lights on my EX.

It's impossible to take a photo and show me the engine bay , I know exactly where you went in at just trying to get a mental picture on the engine Bay part ?

Thanks

Let me see if I have a few pictures. Kinda hard to see but here it goes. In the last 2 pictures you can see where I ran the wire inside the rubber grommet and you can see the white plastic connector that I still had to pull through it. It took some force but eventually got it through.

Here’s an example of an eTrailer brake controller install feeding wires through an added grommet. I didn’t want to drill any metal.

On this trailer break setup how does it button-up to the back end and how is this installed ?
Mine only has the factory 4 pin back with no trailer break.

Thanks

Did you find out yet? Lol

No haven't gotten around to it yet weekends are usually my free time that is when my honey do list isn't so big

I’m trying to decide if I want to just buy a roof rack and install a light bar on top…or do it thru the grill…

I like both ideas but as time goes by the roof rack basket with the light bar seem more likely.
The basket has to been able to allow me to mount my roof cargo carrier.
It's 63L x 38W x 19 H
I sprayed it with bedliner.

I'm wondering if there's a way to run the light bar in the bumper without having to take the bumper off going to look at it this weekend.
Might need to relocate the front license plate off to the side not sure

Yeah, I’m leaning towards getting a roof rack and attaching the light bar to the roof rack.

If I end up going for a lower price roof rack until later I'm going to get a bed liner sprayed just because I don't want any rust leaking down on top of the vehicle

What rack and light bar did you go with? Are you running the harness down your windshield trim.

I bought a cheap rack and light bar from Amazon. The wires fit pretty neatly down the windshield trim. It’s on top but there’s a little space to tuck it in. I just used some
Silicone to glue it in
