Lighting on my LC250 what are you using to manage wires?

[Norseman]

What is everyone using to lock down your cables on your roof racks. I have run the cables temporarily and used zip ties but really would like something a little more professional. I have looked at looming the wires in the braided wrap but am still trying to decide how to attach it all to the rack T-slots. I haven't really found a decent source for T-slot zip tie mounts.

I have been in the electronic/electrical space for 2 1/2 decades now. Zip ties are professional. Even if loomed, we use zip ties to manage the runs. Call it desensitization, but I think well done zip ties look better than any alternative.

Maybe more professional wasn’t the right way to put it. “Well done” is a more accurate phrase. I’d like to find a t-slot zip tie anchor I think that would look very clean rather than wrapped around the cross member.

Which rack are you using? Your pictures don’t show one, but it will help anyone with advice to give. Not all t-slot rails are alike.

For my light bar on my Kuat Dek rack, I used the diode dynamics wire hider that came with it to run the wires along the inside of the side of the rack, then ran down one of the feet and under the molding on the roof of the LC. Then down under the windshield trim and into the hood by the hinge. Hides it really well.

The standard tape on the wire hider wouldn’t stick to the powder coat, so I needed to swap it out for 3M 5952 tape
