Got the seals installed and wiring harness done. I was worried about routing wires down the side of canopy rail to the microswitch - turned out to be a non-event. It was fun splicing (with butt splices) the wires from the microswitch (ground wire), fans, and the Van's red/white LED strip light into the canopy harness. Seals were also quite pleasant. Almost anything is pleasant compared to fiberglass dust! I spent most of yesterday cleaning up the shop of fiberglass dust and mess. I'm going to try to do as much future fiberglass work as possible outdoors.
I had to add a wire to the harness for the "third" wire on the Vans strip light (harness only accounts for a single color - my version has red/white with separate wires for each). It was quite simple to add a wire/pin to the Molex connector and splice this to the extra (white) wire on the Van's strip.
Tested everything with a 9 volt battery and meter for connectivity - all good.
