I was thinking coat hanger bent into a circle, and tape the
string onto the end of the coat hanger. Copper eletric wire also
good, 14 gage probably work.

I don't think they make coat hangers THAT big, and that much copper wire
would be expensive.


D'oh!

I've found 14AWG THHN to be quite handy stuff to have around. I just
used it to fish some wire through the hatch of my girlfriend's car. I
was wiring up the rear fog light, if you really must know (it's a VW
Corrado - yes, I hate people that drive around with their rear fog
lights on when it's not foggy; but it also bugs the crap out of me that
there's a switch on the dash from the factory with two positions and the
second position does nothing. Does that make me obsessive compulsive?)

Yes, I pulled some 14AWG stranded behind the THHN once I got it where I
needed to get it. Attempting to snake the stranded through directly
would have been like trying to push spaghetti through conduit.
