Quick easy way to get a cable outside?

[Detritus]

Hi all,

A while back I made an LED awning bar, and the cable plugs into the socket to the right of the rear bench seat. It works really well, but I have to unplug it to close the door, and it prevents me from putting my mosquito net across the door. I was hoping to find a quick / easy way to run a cable to the awning casing that doesn’t require an open door or window!
It could be directly, or by creating an exposed socket somewhere that I could connect the cable into (I’ve used SAE connectors so that I can disconnect the wire from the bar). Any suggestions?

I’ve got a LED strip fitted to the awning also. I route the extra long USB cable via the top corner of the boot door, and then to the boot socket outlet. Its not a permanent thing, it just allows us to sit outside with the doors and windows closed.

Thanks @Hawthorn37 - do you just shut it in the door? Or is there a hole up there somewhere that you put it through?

In my old T6 I took a coaxial cable from the interior for an external tv aerial connection through the cable grommet for the rear light cluster.
This allowed an F type connector to be clipped next to the gas strut on the outside of the rear tailgate.
Think a similar route could be taken on the right hand side
