--------------- Hi Volks, I like running wires through the frame member. There are holes all along it with some in the engine compartment and some near the spare tire. I have found about 5 #18 wires and then a flat 50 wire scsi cable can move enough data back and forth. Most gauges work fine on the flat cable wiring. Circuit specialists at cir.com has good prices on flat cables, it comes in 20 - 60 conductor.
