Trimble Nav 900 antenna cable routing

I had a 6 month trial of a Trimble GFX 750 with the Nav 900 controller on the roof.
Because it was a trial the cables to the roof were routed up the outside of the cab, to the roof.

I have now bought the outfit and want to do a tidy install of the 2 cables.
Inside is no problem(up the B pillar) to the roof but whats the best way to get the cables outside and into the antenna?? Prefer as little as possible showing as there is always some muppet and a tree branch.
The cable has a good sized Deutsch plug on it so a little tidy hole and grommet are out,. Is it possible to remove the pins from the plug and reassemble once through to the outside? The little cable and plug look like less of a problem.

Its a New Holland cab, no hatch.

Any tips or ideas welcome.

TIA

You can't dis-assemble the plug on the external (nav900) end but you can on the internal end although it's a ball ache if it's an agr harness, not too bad for EZ-Pilot or APMD.

Thanks for that, mine is a EZ pilot Pro motor, will have a look and see. Be nice to get it fitted in tidy.
