Hello Bruce,
I am a young homebuilder and electricity is very new for me. Can you tell me which D sub pins you used and the socket staggered too ? if you have a link to by them?
In advance thank you

The hole on the elevator spar that the wiring goes through also conflicts with the threaded rod that sticks out on the servo. I drilled a smaller hole above that large hole big enough for a small snap bushing sized for the sleeved wiring. I made the new hole close enough to the existing hole so I could cut a small slot between the two holes so that the servo wire could be slipped into the new hole from the existing larger hole.
Picture this (rotated 90 degrees):

Simply slit the small snap bushing with a utility knife so you can install it over the servo wire then snap it into place in the new smaller hole you drilled. The snap bushing fills the new hole and the slot is small enough to not affect the stability of the snap bushing to stay in the wiring hole.
Once you get the servo installed in the elevator, you can pull the wiring back into the fuselage and make a service loop there for the excess wire.
That's pretty clever. I've already done mine differently, but since I'm in the middle of the hstab SB, I might reconsider.The wiring length after the P-Clamps allows sufficient movement without the wire contacting against any part of the aircraft.
