Yes Bud I've had bubble gum lights mounted on my Snow Plow Trucks many times and they were all energized in the same manner .Centered on the roof with a hole drilled throught the roof.Then run between the roof and headliner over the windshield drivers side and down alongside the windshild a post ,exiting behind the dash ,drivers side to a pullout illuminated switch. I know your not anxious to punch a hole in the roof but there is a weather seal screwed down from above to a lower half that forms a positive seal. Not unlike those holes drilled and sealed in the roof of pilot house boats that get awashed with seawater daily. I think I know how you feel about making a hole in the roof of your new Nitro. I have been kicking around drilling two holes in my hood to mount a Dodge Ram Hood ornament .The old fashion type ,4 inches high and 7 inches long ,bright Chrome. This should go a long way in making my Nitro the ultimate pimp wagon.

Caution McNabb in making that hole that you don't fracture the Clear Coat/Paint .
