Hi Guys
I did just that with regard to running wires up the T slot. All my electronics are in the Cherry Pi base but I needed z endstop micros witches at the top and I wanted lights. IKEA do some superb led strip lights for £11.00 for a set of three 250 mm long. I have them wired to a pin on my Rumba that lights them when the steppers are live. They work great. I ran the wires top to bottom in the hole in the centre of the extrusion and ran them around the top in the T slot. I got some cf effect self adhesive tape to cover the slot. At first glance you can't see any wires on the machine. Unlike my Huxley which is a birds next!
Good luck with your builds. Merry Christmas.
