    Live Scope wire routing Ranger 619

    Thinking about installing Live scope in my Ranger 619.


    I am wanting to put the black box and a smaller lithium battery in the front starboard compartment.


    Here is my question,

    is it possible to run wires from that compartment to the bow panel area?
    I have felt around inside the compartment but it seems that there is NO openings to the bow panel area.


    Just wondering if anyone has made this type of install work out?

    Thanks

    There are a few post about this as I used to have the black box and a battery up there on my old set up before I switched to a dedicated 80Ah lithium on a run and gun in the back. I just drilled a hole to runt eh wires through the plastic boot that runs forward in that compartment. After opening the nose up I had to cut 2 inches of foam away to find the hole I had bored through.

    The starboard storage locker on my little 170VX has a plastic "box" that could serve to put rods in that goes forward from that locker. It ends up front just below the bow accesss plate. I just cut a hole in the end of that "box" and ran the wires back to the locker where I put my lithium battery and GLS10.

    If you have rod tube's, you can run the cable through the top right tube. I just cut a small hole in the tube next to the bow access panel. It works great.

    I show how to do this in my video of installing Dual AT2 units (part 1 and 2). The part about getting into the starboard rod locker is in part 2:
