Although glassing over your wiring is safe, electrically speaking, it could
possibly weaken the structure due to the fiberglass cloth having to bump
over the wire instead of laying flat. I guess you could inlay the wires,
but either way it would not be possible to repair a broken wire.

I used nylon tubing (like for the brake lines)as electrical conduit several
places where future access would not be possible, and Radio Shack has
several smaller sizes of teflon "spaghetti tubing" (I think). But this is
an accessable area, no?

Why not just run a neatly-dressed pair of wires on the surface up to the
light (after you have painted the canopy)?
