Newbie needs wiring advice

[StormChase85]

I originally had an account here but it’s been a hot minute so I guess I can be a newbie again, I am pretty experienced in wiring warning lights and anything 12v but I’m stumped here. I have a Bedslide for my Truck and also have bed bins that are also mounted to them, I want to mount a set of of Lin3s to them but my issue is figuring out how to wire them up to also move with the bedslide, it comes out almost 80% of the way out of the bed for easier access but I’m stumped on how to wire them up so that the wire follows suit with the slide and best scenario retracts when the bed slide goes back in, worst case I just push the wire back in which is fine, any help is greatly appreciated.

I attached pics for anyone unfamiliar with bedslides, it comes out alot further but the garage is closed and it’s to hott out to go all out right now.

Front lighting includes 3 rotabeams, 2 tir 3s

On wreckers they are typically mounted in a chain like channel that folds over with the bed movement.

If you do not need them lit when the drawer is pulled out then you could just use a spring type contact. Older Dodge products used a row of them in the doorjambs if you need reference. I'm sure some type of retractable device is made for this too, they made them for phone cords back when.

Hopefully at least some ideas to think about at least.
