I have had someone helping me on the last couple tries, and with two of us, if my partner shines a flashlight into the hole inside the cooler, i can see a small light beam through the cieling. I found a 12" drill bit that I'm going to try and get that hole a little bigger.
I have taken my smaller bit sets down to the drill shaft, so I should be able to get a bigger hole in there now.

How big is the hole? if it's big enough, try this.
take a piece of #14, and make a loop at the end. push this from inside until the loop pokes into the void. strip the jacket off a couple feet of your cable, and see if you can thread the needle, and pull the loop in.
goog luck..

I got a smaller drill bit, got through yet another layer of metal that I thought I was already through, and the hole happened to be within reach  It was slanted up, i pushed the Cat3 right through and pull it through the other side. Worked like a champ. I got through with a 3/8" drill bit. Anything bigger than 3/8 didn't work.

Use the alarm wires as a drag to pull in your wires and new alarm wires. Get permission from the alarm guy, obviously.
Sometimes the new alarm wires can be smaller to make the job even easier.
