Is there a straight forward route to run some wiring from the engine bay into the cabin / accessible behind the dash somewhere? .

i remember someone saying that there's a route from behind the battery through into the glove box area and i think the glove box has to be dismantled...... ... - .- -.

is this for your possible fogs-in-grill project, if so you could wire up to the existing fogs with a relay.. ... - .- -.

Drivers side there is a large grommet on the bulk head , carefully piece with something sharp I have a special screwdriver for this possible to use a braddle.
Then pass a thin tube I use plastic beer line this will appear up near wiper mech
Seal the cable with some silicone mastic
Regards

@ stan

Yes, but I have funky spotlights with LED rings (on separate circuits). So just weighing up the options of either linking these LED rings up with my DRLs (but that might upset our resident troll ) or by having a separate switch for them in the cab.

Got to figure out a good way of securing the spotlights first, without doing too much damage. Not much room in behind the grille for making a secure fixing. So if I strengthen the grille itself this might be an option too.

Nevertheless, useful to find a cable route trhough to the cab, for all sorts of things  .

whats your front fog switch doing at the moment? ... - .- -.

Nada, just on the resistors to prevent dash alert.

So main spots (halogens 55w) will go onto that switch, and another switch for the (blue) LED rings. .

you could wire up the main spots to your main headlight switch [with relay] and use the fog switch for the blue leds... ... - .- -.

How about using something like this

Might make the job a lot simpler as no faffing about behind the dash.

Thanks Adrian, that's got to have a use in the car somewhere , but perhaps a bit over the top for this particular use. I would probably have used this for the on/off switch for my carpc, but now I have run all the cables and fitted the switch. Anyway, all work on hold as it is too cold and snowy to get out there and do anything  .

Did you find a good route to run through???

I'm going to be running 0 gauge amplifier cable but can't see a good route through the bulkhead???

Is there any grommets etc under the battery plate or is there a better way?

Not got to this yet SATVC, too cold and too much work on at the moment. Some free time coming up end of March. .
