Do the interior lamp wires run down the 'A' or 'B' pillars?

That's what i thought too.

 

I have shoved a scope up the A pillar & can't find the bastards!

 

On a plus note though, the inside of the pillars looks good. :)

Are they up in the roof channel? Actually... Do you already have the roof lining fitted?

Oh the joys! lol

Have a look at the under-dash wiring loom that you pulled out, the wire that runs up into the roof should be obvious, from memory I think it's a twin white/orange wire and it should be really long?

 

You shouldn't have to pull the windscreen, just un-glue the driver's side of the hoodlining and try to feed a long bit of tie wire down through the A-pillar, I've done this a couple of times but it's a prick of a job, it's like there's only a very small gap you have to get through?

 

Then tape a long section of the interior light wire to the tie wire and carefully pull it back through.

That's the plan Andrew.

 

I have the wires at the lamp, but i've lost the other end.

 

Running a couple more wires thru isn't too difficult. I've poked antennae coax up thru that hole before. :)

The interior lamp wires terminate on rear tail light loom plug which sits high up the kick panel.
