Heat exchangers, such as radiators, condensers, or other cooling systems, are provided in the present disclosure. Heat exchanging systems may include an assembly for routing cooling conduits from the heat exchanger, along or through one or more A-pillars of the vehicle, and to a rooftop electronics assembly, which may be used for performing self-driving functions when the vehicle is configured as an autonomous vehicle or the like. The conduit routing assembly enhances manufacturing efficiency and cost effectiveness as compared to conventional assemblies. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, an assembly for cooling a rooftop electronics assembly of a vehicle may include one or more conduits configured to transport a cooling fluid between an in-vehicle cooling system and the rooftop electronics assembly, wherein the one or more conduits are disposed partially along an A-pillar of the vehicle.
