wing conduit

Does anyone have a picture they can share of how they handled the wing conduit (the nylon corragated stuff that Van's sells) as it passes into the fuse? Do you simply cut a hole in the fuse in line with wing conduit and terminate the conduit just inside the fuse, or is it better to have the wing conduit stop nearly flush with the last inboard wing rib, and just pass the wires into the fuse?

Thanks for the help.
 
My conduit stops at the inboard wing rib. Then the wires pass through
the gap and through a nylon bushing in the fuselage. Here the wing is upside
down while I proseal the tank cover. The wires exit the conduit and are
temporarily stuffed back into the wing to keep them out of my way while
I get nasty with proseal.

Here are some pictures on one way to position the conduit holes. (See the 3rd. & 4th. group of pictures dated 8/18/05, near the top of the page.)
