Mounted the Strip so the Wires came out the Pass’Side & wrapped them

over/around the outer edge of Hatch, then up the underside to the top near

the hinge & then back down via an extension to the Pass’Side TailLight ~

No Pics @ this time but can take some & will post a link to where I post ~

The 60In Length of these doesn’t quite cover the full Width of the RearHatch

so I covered the Wires that show & the exposed hatch on opposite side with

a small piece of Black GorillaTape,,, Not Fancy but it works ~
