I believe the original guard on my FH has clips to allow the cable to sit in the rib. There's a gap over the connection bridge for the cable to go through.

Hi Johnny

A couple of photos to illustrate what Simes says:

Yes I have kept the break in the loom to allow the rear section of the mudguard to be removed, hard wiring from the light to the break at the mudguard join and adding a dedicated earth running from the light to an earth collector point at the regulator.
