You can buy grommets specifically for the job. Or use silicon.

I just wired mine the other day, and i ran the wire down the gutter, under the weather stripping around the windshield and in the space between the fender and cowel. I was worried about a hole in the roof as well. I will post pics if i can figure out how.

I like that, i did mine similarly, but went from the gutter into the front of the door opening and ran the wires INSIDE of the door weatherstripping, down to about the hinge area, then there is just enough room to go fish the wire through RIGHT under the top of the fender and through to the engine bay. The only place you see wire is from the gutter to the door, like 2".
