Hi all, new here and have a 2023 defender. I have a factory installed winch where they used the 4 spare accessory wires under the front hood. I’m now trying to wire a front mounted LED light bar and get the switch wires back into the dash so I can connect to a rocker switch.
Being new to any electrical work, I can’t seem to find any path/hole where I could fit the wiring. I’ve attached a photo and you probably can see that the back wall and existing access points are already jammed.
Has anyone drilled a hole somewhere ‘safe’ to get wires through - my drill hole would need to be about 1/3rd of an inch to fit it through?
There is also a panel (~1inch x 2 inch) in the middle of the back section (circled in red). It’s held on by 3 small notches. I’m curious if anyone has taken this off and if there would be access behind it that goes under the dash? Once the notches are cut it’s a permanent thing. Any help would be great. Cheers Mat
