Hey everyone - I picked up some auxiliary 12v lights from Baja designs, a 48v to 12v converter and a diode dynamics Dswitch to independently control all of them. Plan is to run them off the the frunk power feed -> 48v to 12v converter -> inline fuse -> Dswitch -> lights. The converter will be mounted behind the frunk but the Dswitch itself will be in the frunk. The Dswitch also comes with a physical switching panel that I want to install in the cabin.
What is the best way to route wiring from the frunk/behind the frunk to the cabin? Is there an easy route or am I going to have to cut/modify panels?

Thanks!

Many threads on this mostly about fridge power. The route I used was behind frunk=>behind passenger fender=>through rubber grommet into passenger side floor board

Use a wire fisher or long zip tie/coat hanger etc

I would recommend wireless power controllers like Baja designs' sPoD(bluetooth phone app) or Trigger(comes with wireless toggle switches) instead of running a cable to the cabin through the passenger doorside.

Yeah the Dswitch also has a mobile app for wireless control but has an additional dedicated channel for backlight control so I went for it over the SPod. Wanted to see if routing the physical panel in the cabin would be easy enough or not
