Question Sportbrake - wiring in cameras

Hi all. Recent 2018 XF Sportbrake owner.

Asked the dealer for diagrams, tips on running two USB-C cables from front to back passenger corner for hard-wiring some front&rear cameras. Cue the expected - "you don't want to do anything to the electrical system that would void your CPO warranty..." Meh. It's a really nice Vantrue setup with hardwire kit to plug into the fuse panel.

Was wondering if there is anyone who has run anything in the headliner or along the floor in an XF wagon. Any recommendations on where to run, what to avoid? Obivously want to avoid breaking any frustrating clips or messing up anything around the airbags.

The various trim panels can all be carefully lifted enough to slide a wire underneath.Pick your route and use a plastic prybar. I ran my wire along the roofline from top center windshield to the ciggy lighter plug in cargo compartment rear.
