Question - Tom, where approx. in the metal shroud did you make an opening to locate the conduit, and how large of an opening did you need?
And 2 - Did you try blowing a string through the conduit with a high pressure air nozzle? Some times if there is enough room in the conduit that works well to push through a wire pull string.
And lastly the holding tank heater wiring may be a great place to tie into power if they are 12V as I don't see needing that feature in CA soon.
Thanks Again, Roger

Roger, l have attached a photo showing the hole location and one lined up with the route of the sq tube/conduit over the light and on to the left edge of the command center. The hole is ½” with a rubber grommet installed. If you take down the light you have two 2’ runs to the command center. It is fairly crowded in the tube so I doubt you can blow the string through there. But hey, they’re only 2’ runs. I actually pushed the two wire cable through instead of using a fish tape. The biggest problem was getting the wire turned through the ½” hole.
I actually ran an additional 12V line from the fuse panel to the command center for the fan and other add-ons but I think the tank heaters would be a good source of power. Even in Minnesota I won’t be running the front fan on a day cold enough to be using the heaters.
