Anyone have success hiding the excess wire from a roof top light bar or other accessory? I see people do the zip tie thing but I want a clean install. Looks fairly easy to remove roof trim and pop open the B pillar camera housing. I see that I can stuff excess wire down the B Pillar but how would I then keep it water tight? The truck 48v wiring has the stopper attached to it, or so it looks like in the manual. Here’s a picture of the manual and how I want the install to look at the end Vs how I dont want it.

Tuck the extra under the top plastic trim or cut off the extra and resolder, maybe?

On the excess cable from my rearview camera, I let the loop drop down into the right rear quarter panel since there’s a gap there for drainage between the inner and outer panel, and it was outside the track for the vault cover so I figured there’s no harm in anything getting to it
