Cable routing

Just wondered… if I wanted to pass a bunch of cables through from the cabin to the engine bay, is there a ready made route I can use?

If it sticks, force it. If it breaks, it needs replacing anyway.

I'm pretty sure there's a point behind the glove box leading to the battery.

Yep. I ran the coax and power cable for my UHF radio through that grommet. I snaked a well lubed piece of 1.6mm welding rod through first and used it to pull through the coax and figure-8 power cable. I can't remember if I had to remove the end piece of the dash that holds the cup holder to get access to the welding rod after it came through or just the end closing panel. It was some years ago.

Thanks p38

I have the 2008 novel so no cup holders and the welcome light is in the glove box door, not the end panel. I’ll have a root around there when I do the headlight work. Tym

Just drop the glove box down and open the bonnet and you should find a route.

If needed, remove the side panel on the dash (look at my dash cam install guide as not to damage it). 2015 Range Rover Autobiography 4.4 SDV8

Thanks Gary. You seem to have the same set up as I do. I found the huge boot that, worst comes to worst, I can cut and silicone around the wires, but can’t get to the cabin side.

I need to remove the end panel but while I can get to one screw, I need to remove the air vent to get to the second one.

How do I remove the vent? I tried unsuccessfully as Ididn’t want it break it! Tym
