I stuck my head under the TT today and was happy to see the darco and insulation are not very "thick" in the areas I plan to install conduit.
I'm thinking rather than cut any kind of slit or large opening in the darco, I can cut an X in it and slide through a PVC bulkhead fitting, either 1" or 1.5". Then I use silicone or some sort of RTV sealant around the bulkhead, both inside and outside, and then tighten down the retaining nut. I'll keep the threaded side of the bulkhead inside the camper, and the flange side facing out. Then I can cement a PVC street elbow into the bulkhead. Repeat the process on the other side, and put some pipe between the two. There are clips screwed into the under side holding the holding tanks and rigid gas line, so I plan to screw some pipe-strapping into the same location to support the conduit.
