  Passing the wire routing string through carrier.jpg - Before mounting the completed tire rack, a fish string for the license plate light harness needs to be routed through the arm, from the center of the tire carrier to the end of the arm where the harness comes through. I fed a string with a small nut through the open end where the wire emerges for the license plate light. I rotated the rack until the string was visable in the center. I fished the string out with a wire, cut off the nut, and then tumbled the nut out in the direction it had come in.
