 Posted: Mon Apr 13, 2009 5:53 am Post subject: Running wire through bulkhead |
 |
|
How did you run wire past the bulkhead between the baggage area and rear seats? The 3/4" holes for wire on either side are definitely not big enough. Did you enlarge one or both of those holes (and if so, how large)? I called Van's and they wouldn't say how large you can make those holes. Did anyone run wires through the lightening hole, under the seat, and up through the seat bottom (between the side skin and cover)?
Thanks...

This is how I did it. I ran three of Van’s nylon conduits on each side. Another builder ran only two on each side and ran out of room.
I got the large rubber grommets that fit the side lighting holes from Stein.

Thanks, Carl... I was starting to think that's the best option. How did you make the holes in the seat rib?

I did roughly the same thing, but used the 1/2", or 3/4" pvc drip system line. It's cheap and light. Ran them in the wings also. Ran a totally seperate one for the magnatometer wires, all the way from front to back. The drip system stuff doesn't turn corners as well, but it's not corrugated, so smoother movement of wires. Run more than you think you'll need.
