Out of Room for Wires

[JackinMichigan]

I have nearly all the wires run throughout the fuselage. There are many wires sticking out the 3/4 hole going to the wings each side. (wings not on)

I have yet to run 2 pitot tubes for the Garmin GAP 26 pitot plus the necessary electrical wires.

I am out of room. Cannot get even one air line through the 3/4 grommet going to the wings on either side.

Also, the holes internally below the door opening are full also (both sides)

I plan on adding another hole just above the existing hole, probably 1/2 inch.

Plus, I plan on adding holes to the vertical members below the door opening. Again as small as I can make it.

I need your expert opinion. Weakening the structure???

Will it be weaker because of it? Of course it will. Will it still be strong enough? Most likely. Most RV-10's have extra holes in these areas for wires. The stock holes are not enough for the wires needed.
