For light weight, go with "wiring loom". It's cheap, extremely light,
and designed to surround and protect wiring. Running wires down it
blind is not easy. The wire ends want to catch on the ribs. Solve that
by screwing on a small wire-nut (or make sure you have the twine, as
Stealth suggests).

Another option I read about, years ago, was to take a piece of mylar and roll it
into a tube. Slide it into the wing, and it'll uncoil as far as it can for the
largest possible cableway for later use.
