Static line routing for steam

I've been scratching my head (and other areas for a while on this one), and looked at some older posts, but am looking for more specific info on static line routing.

I am working on my -9 and using basic VFR steam gauges, so running static (Van's kit) from aft fuse up to the panel. Can anyone lend a good routing for this, especially getting past the spar bulkheads?

Thanks for the help!

Hi Rick. I remember following Vans instructions on static line. There is a drawing specific to bulkhead penetration. I'll check if I have any pics later in the day.

Nice to have one more 9 driver here!
 
It will give you some pointers Rick. It runs along and under left longeron. Don't pay attention to rivets you could do better :)

Thanks guys!

Discovered the space above the spar bulkheads! A simple thing that I was overthinking.......
 
Might want to replace those washers with the thinner ones to get more threads sticking out. Or longer bolts.
