bullfrog:
There is also a space on the windscreen rubber to tuck the wire under. Best way is a grommet and some sikaflex with a small hole. Neat and tidy. I used a boat type plug on the shogun as these are waterproof and you can run wires below interior light.
They are not cheap @ around £12 but they look pro and do the job well.
You will need a decent 4 pin relay (or 2 depending on the wattage of lights), a switch and some decnt 2 core wire (3 core if using powerfull lights) + a decent waterproof fuse holder.

And if you need instructions... on building your own... Check out the photostory from my own build here.

If you are running a diesel it'll probably have to go on the passanger side... but whatever works for you.

One tip... use lots of jointing cement to ensure an air/water tight seal.

Any questions, gimme a shout.

floyd fan:
Get some wire wrap (or insulation tape), run all the wires up the side of the rubber strip and use cable ties to secure.

Terminate your wires at roof level with crimped connectors, this saves you having to unwire the lot if you need to remove the roof bar.  Cover them with oodles of ins tape.

Dont forget you will need relays and fuses.

j.stobart:
thanks for all the advice chaps, will definitely be following it.
