The access plate in the left front corner of the top is where the interior light in the top plugs into the vehicle. When I take the top off I usually tuck that wire behind the side trim panel better so its not dangling.

Re: dome light power wire routing????

It's no issue at all for me. My Jimmy has a full-time soft top and I stuffed it up behind the ash tray plate and wire tied it to the loop that is always exposed. No big deal to nip the tie and pull the wire out should I decide to put the hard top back on. If that seems like a pain for just a day or so with the top off,just stuff it back there and hope it stays,maybe stuff something else up there with it to hold it there (out of sight)...or just don't let it bother you,it's just a day and you can't see it from where you sit anyway
