Yo Zippy, there's a couple of grommets you can use in front of the driver

Just poke one out, drill a hole in it the size of your wire. Then stick it back in, poke the wire in it and pull through carefully.
Easy way to get the cable to the back is along the carpet edge. Just undoo the plastic trim at the bottom of the door and lift the carpet a bit. Poke your cable under there with the dust sand and dog hair then stick the trim back on

Simples.
Repeat on the way back as required

There is an un used gromet at the back of the glove box. that's where all my wires for the lights come through on mine.

Zippy, I've got no experience on putting new wires into terranos but done loads of other cars.

Personally (and it is personal pref) I always go with the straightforward easiest option.

I've been looking for somewhere to route the switched trigger wire to the relay for my svo heater and I cant see a better route than youve got in your pictures. Theres a wiring loom already in place to follow and fasten to . It also (if its the same as mine) comes out in a fairly handy spot but in the middle of everything. If you puncture any existing seals or the rubber shroud on the loom just dab a bit of silicone sealant on once the wires seated to keep the weather out

Inside previous cars I've never had a problem getting wires to push away under trim panels for most of their route

Thats if your new cable can fit through that size gap of course
