[QUOTE="justcozz, post: 1134076, member: 13512"] I have mine wired up so everything comes forward, and the wires run down the passenger side of the windshield, like a standard windshield light bar. It's ok like this but doesn't look as clean and might be susceptible to snagging on branches. Not a concern for the desert guys but it's a problem in the thick woods of the SE where I live. I think a much better approach is to bring the wires straight down the back below the rear lights. It gives you a longer run for the 40" up front, but will be a cleaner safer install. Also, make sure you run a large enough gauge wire. That run will probably end up needing 8 AWG or bigger, just due to length. I haven't run the numbers yet but it's a long ways from the back of the roof to the battery. [/QUOTE]
