Any tips on running wires to armrest from trunk?

Im looking to run 4 small wires from the trunk to the centre console arm rest. I'l like to run them under the carpet or along door sill then over to the armrest.

Im looking for minimal dis-assembly if possible.

Anyone done this or have any tips?

Thanks very much if you can help,

JJ

Door sills is the closest to minimal.

I have my sub bass control running up from the trunk to the center console.

I couldnt get it to go under the carpet in the midddle so I just did it from trunk - door sills - under front passenger seat. You cannot tell and it looks clean.

YOu have to remove the rear seat bottom and a piece of padding on the left side rear seat back. On the left side there will be a channel going to the rear of the vehicle. From there you can move it over to the middle under the seat and just off to one side of the "hump" there is another "channel" in the padding that runs up to the center console. Hard to visualize and I don't have any pics, but you should see what I mean when you remove the seat bottom.
