Hi All,

Well, I've inspected under the bench and can't seem to see where the wire
harness from the computer goes
into the engine compartment.   I tried fishing some large tie wrap that way
but could not get it to go.    I'm not
really crazy about running the video wire that way anyway...

So I tried fishing the video wire along down the bundle that goes from the
A/C connections behind the rear cabinet
but it just feels too tight to pass the plug portion.   I think the wire
itself would be fine but I'm not going to push
it.

So I think I'm going to have to drill another hole beside the hole for the
A/C bundle.   Underneath it feels like there
is some kind of composite but it just might be accumulated dust/oil and
such.   I think the best thing would be
to start with my Dremel tool as it has a better chance of getting in there
than my Makita drill.   What do you guys
and gals think?

Thanks,

Steven
