Routing the Lightbar Cable(s):
1.
To protect the headliner from damage caused by drilling the cable
access hole through the vehicle roof, allow a 5” to 7” distance
between roof and headliner by lowering the headliner before drilling.
2.
Using a 1” hole saw, drill the cable access hole then use a round file
to smooth and de-burr the edges of the hole. Install a 1” grommet
(user supplied).
NOTE: There may be a roof support member that spans the distance
between the driver’s and passenger’s side. DO NOT DRILL
THROUGH THIS MEMBER! Adjust the location until the hole can be
drilled without contacting this support member.
3.
Insert the cable(s) through the cable access hole into the vehicle.
Use RTV silicone to weatherproof the access hole after the cable(s)
are pulled completely into the vehicle.
4.
Route the cable(s) one at a time to their respective destinations
(power cable to vehicle battery; control cable to switch panel). Refer
to the instructions included with your switches for switch wiring
information.
IMPORTANT AIR BAG WARNING! Refer to front cover for necessary
air bag precautions.
