Can Power Wire for Trailer Wiring on 2014 Jeep Cherokee Latitude be Ran Through Interior

Question

Question:

Hey I am contemplating the wiring harness on my 2014 KL Latitude but was wondering if there are any wiring instructions that include wiring through the inside of the vehicle? It seems that after long term use, heat or impact would destroy the wiring underneath. Are there options for this?

When routing the power wire for a powered trailer wiring harness you have the option of running the power wire through the interior of the vehicle if that's what you would prefer. It would basically just be a matter of routing it through a grommet in the trunk area of the vehicle, through the interior and then out another grommet on the firewall of the vehicle. I attached a help article that covers the options you have for routing this wire as well.
