when you wire under your seat/under your carpet, give it some extra slack for when the seat gets moved back, but remember to ziptie what isn't extra slack, so when it is in the position you want, it wont move and get tangled

lets say for example my drivers seat is positioned to my preference and i wire the headrest to that but then if i take it in for a service or something and they move the seat all the way back that will pull the wire and possibly cause damage. so because of this, i was thinking of moving the seat all the way to the furtherst position at the back and wiring it on that setting and then that way i have enough wire for all positions. But the problem i can see with this is that there will be alot of excess wire dangling beneath the seat when i bring the seat back to forward positions.

does anyone have any ideas how i can go about doing this? i mean the seats themselves have alot of wires going into them for the cooling and heating etc. so there must be something that they are doing

thanks in advance
if you haven't already found your monitors check this out. its from lexus of westminster and the leather would probably match perfect because of it being an actual lexus part if you were concerned about that. and they could probably help with the wiring issues as well.
