Someone recommended gluing the wire inside the fender with silicone caulking material -- I guess the idea is that you can more easily remove it that if using, say, one of those rubbery Goop type adhesives. Others have pried up the folded-over edge of the fender, run the wire through, and folded it back over the wire. I think I'd choose the former.
As for mounting the 4d lite plus: I always mounted mine high enough so that the LED looks directly back, even is very slightly uptilted -- LED rear lights all seem very sensitive to precise orientation, as I once again discovered when testing a very bright one * on the strap of the new Sackville. Even a slight downward orientation -- as all seem to hang when so mounted on saddlebags -- considerably diminishes the effect when seen at distance from the rear. Rick Risemberg of Bicycle Fixations has put tens of thousands of miles on PB polycarbonate fenders (I think they are PB; at any rate, they are polycar) with such a light mounted on the rear, PJW's warning notwithstanding. * I forget the name and brand, but it is considerably brighter even than the PB Superflash.
