Need Help With Routing the Wiring for 69 Barracuda Hood Mounted Turn Signals Please

[harrisonm]

I finally got around to getting the hood mounted turn signals on my 69 Barracuda working. I ran the wires through the hood, but I can't figure out what to do with them after they exit the back of the hood. It looks really weird having two wires just hanging down. If anybody has some hood mounted turn signals, I sure would appreciate a few pictures of the wire routing.
Thanks

Hood mounted ? Like Chargers had ? Or did you mean fender mounted ?

Oh yeah … I was thinking of a dart .

My 70 Charger had them hanging down at rear of hood .

You can see them above the brake booster .

mine just kinda hang down there the same. no real routing so to speak of.

Here's some under hood pic of my 69 B-Cuda Slickback. The wiring as far as I know has never been messed with, and I've had this car 25-30 years.
The worst thing with these turn signal lights is replacing the bulbs, and getting them to work again after taking them apart. They are finicky.
Harrison, you can probably pull the wires thru all the holes with a long stiff wire, or a coat hanger.

Thanks, @barracudadave67, @junkyardhero and @mbaird. I now know exactly what to do. O hope I can find some of those little plastic clips that hold the wires. It looks like I need several of them. I have two, and they are both broken.

Probably same clips as Chargers and E Bodies

I got my clips from RT Specialties back around 2013. I think the firewall wire holder came from them as well.

Was at car show this afternoon and met a gentleman named Clifford. He has a 63 Dart 170 more door that is in very good shape he should be joining this site soon.
He did a youtube video today at the show attached is a section with my car. Best Mopar Today!

Here is how mine look. Make sure wires are bent in arc so they fold away from hood/cowl weather strip as you close hood. Many decades back mine got pinched between hood weather strip and cowl shorted out and my mother was driving car (decades back these things were just cars) turn signal switch caught fire she pulled into gas station mechanics disconnected battery to save car.

That is like may 68 is. The wires go through the hood inner structure.

I used fiberglass sleeve and interior adhesive to attach my turn signal wires to the hinge. The plastic standard tube is going to the connectors.
