Title: hoodlinig listing wires Post by: NO NAME on January 09, 2010, 10:36:10 AM i pulled out my windscreen, scratched the cowl vent doing it, now ready to start finally fitting my hoodliner but i noticed i am missing a wire, its the 3rd from the front in a wagon.
all the other wires are thick except 1 wich is thin. is the 3rd wire from the back thick or thin? i have thick wire here but if its a thin wire where do i buy thin wire on a saturday? is there another wire in a wagon rooflinig i could copy to make the 3rd one back?

Otherwise all the support bows are all the same guage.
