So I’m installing the drivers side heater channel. I have the klassic fab channels. I need to get the wiring harness through the hole in the channel. Was wondering if the wires for the tail lights just pull out of the square connector in the engine compartment so I can pull the harness back and run it through the hole in the channel. Other option is to just leave the harness be and slice an opening where the hole is and route the harness and than just tac it back. What do you guys think? I’m trying to avoid disconnecting wires.

Yeah, the wires will pull out. Now is a good time to get all your connections shiny and apply some dielectric grease to them.

Cheers!
