Using Weber Connect in Masterbuilt smoker

[BorderBoy]

I received a Weber connect with 2 probes to go with my Masterbuilt smoker. I have a question about it. At the moment, I am putting the probe wires in between the door and the front of the smoker. I don't see how else to place the wires. Can this damage the door seal in any way? Is there a proper way to do it? I have found nothing either on the Weber Connect web page or the Masterbuilt page. I did run across an article where a person suggested drilling a hole through the side of the smoker to run the wires but I am not wanting to do that. Does anyone use the Weber Connect with a Masterbuilt?

Hey BB is this the MES smoker ?
If so, I just dropped them down through the top vent. But I'm sure others will be along to give more ideas.

912, it's this one: Masterbuilt MB20070421.
I am assuming MES means Masterbuilt Electrical Smoker?

@912smoker has you covered. Run the probes down the exhaust.
