Many people prefer to run wires through the spray foam behind the left and right ends of the dashboard. I guess if you have an auto, you can run through the grommet where the clutch would be....

Driver or passenger side. Look under the dash in yhe top corners. There's a hole covered with some sort of foam about the size of a silver dollar. Just punch through it and you're all good

I just wired up fog lights and i went through the drivers side where the windshield washer hose goes through and runs to your rear window. Just poke a nail through the rubber gasket and feed your wire through.

If you pull out the glove box, there is a hole with a foam plug right behind it that can be enlarged to run different sized wires through
