coax out the fridge vent in the roof. easy access..
my solar panels wiring is there... Seems to work ok..
I traded some performance for convenience and used 2 through glass antennas.
coax would prolly be 20 to 30 feet or more to get mine out the fridge vent..

The major differece between you and me is my Intruder is a 2005.

I will give you several routes.

First, before I knew better I simply drilled DOWN through the floor and ran cables along the frame rails.. Quite a few .. Today I know better and have stopped doing that.

Cables into // out of driver's area.. Right through the firewall.. I pushed through the foam sealant around the steering column.

From the back (Mne has a full bath in the rear) you can either go out the rear wall (Still in front of the rear cap) by dirlling or follow the plumbing, on my rig this runs along the driver's side at the junction of the floor and wall under risers, behind slidout panels and into the front half bath where it drops through a hole in the floor into the wet bay under the rig

Kitchen area on my rig is on teh passenger (curb) side, follow the wet bay across and come back up on that side.

ROOF, I measured carefully and drilled down, put in a bulkhead connector and caulked well with Dicor. The plan was for the connector to come into a bathroom cabinet, Mised, it's in the wall, completly hidden (very nice job if I say so myself) a block off palte covers the acces shole, Looks professional

If you are anywhere near Seneca, SC.. Where I'll be next week, Would be a pleasure to help you route cable. Let me know... I work for Coffee (Don't like the standard payment).

What is a 'bulkhead connector' ?

Could you post some photos of your wire runs?



Thanks!
