Under the lowest part of the heater motor there is a flat spot that is ideal for a stuffing gland this route is ideal for amp cables and is easy to drill from inside

I used the same route as the main wiring loom i.e. from behind the off-side suspension turret in the engine bay through to the area above the pedals - above the ECU. It was pretty easy as I recall. No drilling required.
