The problem is not that it can't reach....
Problem is, it goes through the wing and back out, and theres loada stuff in the way

let some string fall down there, pull it through the indicator hole, tie the string the other end to the indicator (obviously without the lens attached), guide it to the hole, pull it through, cut the string, put the lens on.

Or just take the wing off its easy as pie and then you can run the wiring properly
