The wires that are inside the driver's side A-pillar are the ones for the
roof lamps. I was careful drilling for my grab handle, all is good. You
should try installing a map/reading light on the passenger side, easy to do
and a big difference. Good luck to your frind with her project.

By three methods we may learn wisdom:
First, by reflection, which is noblest;
Second, by imitation, which is easiest;
and third by experience, which is the bitterest.
