central locking , flexi conector to go from door to pillar

Post by 16vmini »

Hi ,

Ordered a a central locking kit , and also fancy fitting electric windows one day ,

has anyone found a neat solution for running wires from the door to the car ? instead of the usual bare wires going into a drilled hole

regards

Matt

The holes are already there, you can use a piece of ribbed tubing but the rubber trunking is the best.
I think I still have a pair in the cellar.
