noggin are in line with the switch. You will then need a long piece of stiff
wire, fed down through the holes, and retrieved through the switch cutout,
to pull the cable through.


Alternatively, whilst the drill bit is still inside the wall after
drilling thru, tape some strong string to the end and pull the drill
up. That way you don't have to fish around with wire trying to fit it
thru holes which were previously drilled.

Then once you've got the string you can pull thru the cable from
either end.
