Usually, I go for the first hole and stick it in... but it turns out to be the wrong hole because they're is always a better one.



Which is the best route to pull wire through in a ST? I would prefer for the wire to be non-visible even if you're looking for it. But if that can't work... it's ok.



I'm going to be running a 10" C Wells underseat box, so the wire will have to go to the 60% portion of the rear seat. I've got like 20 feet of power wire, so length shouldn't be an issure.



Any help is greatly appreciated!

Run it under the cab inside the cladding, and if you look in the storage bin on the rear driver's side, there is a large grommet that you should be able to fit the wire through.
 
Ok, will this be safe? I don't have any loom to wrap the wire in so it would just be unprotected.



Is there a way to secure it in the cladding?

Well it will be protected in the cladding. I've had mine this way for 2 1/2 years and I haven't had any problems.
 
Scootr, if you want to run it inside the cab (my recommendation), check my folder "sub enclosure project". I took two shots of the grommet to use for the power wire from your battery to the firewall (entering the cab) and the grommet area near the brake and gas pedal for routing inside the cabin. You'll see it when you pull back the rubber flooring. Then pull the plastic cable/wire routers at your door sills and run the wire along there until you reach your final destination.
