Default Would you install lights?

If I ever wanted to use it it would need replacing.
a light weight straight run cable duct with a loop of light builders
twine from end to end would have been a better option.

lacing the wiring and the pitot tubing to every rib just hasnt proven
to be the best option.(it took 2 months to replace the pitot tubing)

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).
