this should help get your ideas rolling

For me a pix is worth a thousand words.
You have a good pix!
Most use a paper clip for the wire and brass or aluminum tubing.
Just get a size of tubing that the wire fits well in. Glue the tubing in place with CA (super-glue) or epoxy.

Oh Man!

I was going to do a box stock build-up on Tamiya's previous generation Supra (my real car). Now I have to re-think that! Doors, hatch, hood, engine from the Mark IV...
