Default Window Bars and external wiring

Hey guys and gals,

I ordered some Biltwell Window bars yesterday and I'm going to throw them on my 2013 street bob when they arrive. I know they are not drilled for internal wiring so I'm looking into doing it externally but making it look good. An idea I'm thinking about is using a red poly sleeve to match my grips... Anyone else seen the external wiring made to look like an accessory? I could go all black and tie them up, but that ends up looking like I'm trying to hide them and couldn't... So, any cool ways to wrap and display them? Thanks everyone.

Why not drill and dimple for wiring? IMO external wiring just looks cr*ppy.

I ordered the dimpled bars, but they arent drilled
I can drill the bottom tube, but the top "T" tube is solid... I can't figure out how to get in there... I might run them internal up the the top of the down tube and come out the side...

drill them, use a fan pull chain, and feed that though the bars to get your line in, then pull a string connected to your wires, will pull though. may want to get some baby powder on the wires to help them slide nice and easy
