Default Intake LED Turn Signals Question

I am going to be getting hotbodies flush mounts, but I would also like to put LEDs in my air intakes to act as turn signals to counter the decrease in visibility due to installing flush mounts. I know some people here have done this.

My question is what would be the best way to route the LED wires to connect them to the turn signal wires? It is possible to keep the LED wires hidden without drilling a hole in the air intake vents? What are my options?

your wires are going to be pinched by the snorkels a little when you fit them in, if you go directly to the side fairing.
you could possibly notch a little out of your upper fairing at the intake holes so its not an extreme pinch from the snorkels.
what i would do is get thin wires and maybe a bit of e-tape, wrap it a little more, and smash the snorkels into them and then just splice into the flush mount.
actually i would crimp some quick connectors for fairing removal, with some wire slack, keeping it out of the radiator too...
