12V exterior wiring options - conduit etc....

[brianstrange]

I'm currently installing a rear camera and two powerful led reverse lights on my Scotty fiberglass motorhome. I'm trying to install them above the rear center window, and the unit has a rear bath. I was wondering if there's an exterior conduit product that will allow me to cover the wires without adding an eye sore. I need it to hold 3 14 awg stranded wires, and one video cable. I looked at the existing clearance lights as a passage into the coach, but it seems I will have to take the ceiling down to do this properly. The other option I can think of is running small white pvc pipe across the outside top, and turn it to the inside of the bath as a conduit, and drop it down the shared wall of the kitchenette and shower.

I welcome all ideas here. I need the Camera mounted high as I often pull a small enclosed trailer.

Thanks in advance

If it doesn't take some swear words, you aren't doing it right!

Thanks for the advice everyone! I was able to mount it below the center marker light, run the wire up 2" into the maarker housing, and drill a hole in the bath vanity that's centered over the window. From there, I went to the passenger side closet behind the head, and fished them in the conduit on the floor - around the shower, and to the kitchenette on the drivers side. It took some swear words, but I got it done!

If you start running these external wires etc instead of inside you can decrease the value on re-sale. Check out the RV shops. They had to completely rewire my previous TT and they didn't have to run exterior wires.

I'm not set on it, I'm really looking for a better solution than that. These things are a lot tougher to wire than I imagined!

I wish! The back of mine has a radius just above the tail light.

No way I would run the wires on the outside but if you do look into Panduit brand plastic conduit.
