Mine ran from the battery through one of the holes around the door, under the carpet, along the centre consol, under the back seats and through to the boot.

This was what I had. Was already in the car when I bought it. 2 Sony 10" subs, Alpine amp & a fan.

Unfortunately without drilling holes you have to go over the top of the wing near at the back of the passenger side suspension turret then tuck the wire in the panel gap and into the blanking grommet in the door shut.

is there enough room there to fit power cable and rca's? didnt really wanna drill it and not massively keen on running through center of car.
rather go down one side.
is it easy enough to go through front from battery into the cabin?

That must be how mine was then. When you opened the passenger door, you could see a big blue cable threading throught the holes.
