What's all this talk about routing little 10g wires, is overkill dead?

I ran my wires just as ic4lo described. FYI, there is enough space in that cavity to route more wiring if you wanted to. For example, I ran 2 4g marine wires and a 10g wire in a loom to the PS rear under the door sills. In the rear, I installed a fuse block accessible through one of the cubbies, a power inverter hidden behind the trim, and 2 factory flip down 12v always-hot outlets to charge stuff and power the Engel. None of the seats need to be removed to do the routing, and it's useful to have something (fish wire or bulky 4g) to do the routing by the B-pillar. There is a factory loom that runs along there that you can zip tie to if you wish.
