wiring penetration through the cab for a light bar??

I just got my Dick Cepek Baja light bar from 94toy4x4fever (thanks a million!) and got it painted and mounted but I don't know how to run the wires. I was thinking of going through the plastic trim piece behind the door and sealing the hole with a rubber grommet but haven't ever done this before.

How did you guys with light bars run the wires??

edit: this is on the 89 4runner.

Check out pro stereo shops for waterproof grommets.


Alternatively, investigate marine wiring options.

Yeah, dude go thru the trim piece right behind the door. I use to have a lightbar on my truck, but I couldn't get into the garage with it on. Getting that trim piece off is NOT easy because the four nipples that hold it on are opposing. Meaning you can push up or push down and the thing comes off. I got mine off and I think only one might have broke one because I snapped it back on and its fine.
