I'm going to be replacing the wiring for the running board lights on my 98 EB. ANyone know what gauge wire to use & what size the bulbs are? Also, what is the plastic tube that the wires are housed inside called.? I'll need to get that as well too.

Why not grab a harness from the junk yard and keep everything factory?
The black tubing is called wire loom.

Eraser, some 18 gauge wiring should be more than adequate for that lighting. It is all low power stuff.

LIke Stamp said, the black tubing is called "wire loom". You can pick it up at Lowes, Home Depot, Radio Shack, etc.
