Got the corrugated plastic conduit (purchased from Van’s) installed in both wings. Took a couple of days, and caused a lot of blisters – but it’s done. I decided also to open up some of the rib tooling holes, per Vans’ instructions, to hold additional wiring. Turns out that 7\/16″ OD snap bushings (also purchased from Van’s) are the perfect inner diameter (~0.25″) to hold the strobe cable that Whelen sells with their lighting kits, and between enlarged tooling holes and unused 7\/16″ holes for the pitot line, I can run strobe cable outside the conduit. That hopefully gives a little electromagnetic separation for reduced stobe noise in the audio system, and also frees up some space in the conduit for additional wiring.<\/p>\n
