Usefull Tool.

I had a spare oil 'Dipstick'. I cut off the plastic end that reads your oil levels.

Then I put a little 1/2" bend at the end. You then have a fantasticly bendy wire (stainless steel ?), that will go anywhere.

Great for finding and pulling wires through awkward places.

Other plus is you can always find it in tool box (Bright Yellow Ring)

Sure lots of other uses (Plenums etc)

Yep. I use an old merc gear oil dipstick for doing the plenum. Very handy indeed.
