Default Running wires for a two channel dash cam

I'm considering buying this dashcam kit (Blackvue DR550GW-2CH) BlackVue - Full HD 1080p Dash Cameras with GPS

The camry is a leased 4cyl 2014 se.

The kit has a front and rear camera. The front and rear cam are connected by an small bnc wire.

I'd like some help running the front-back wire and conceal it without resorting to having it done by a pro.

Is there any information out there on how to do it or is this just a real bad idea

Cheers!

The wiring runs down the left and right side of car in the rocker covers. Passengers side wiring goes to trunk. If deck mounting camera you could remove the lower seat and fish the wire down the upper rear seat to the rocker panel. The plastic trim on the rocker panel keeps the carpet down.

Then behind the drivers side kick panel and up under the dash. To get to radio/LCD screen will need to remove trim around unit.

Wiring to engine compartment is on passengers side firewall. Might drill hole on drivers side in firewall, then attach to existing wiring to front. When returning car, cover hole of course. Otherwise will need to try and force wire through a grommet which may be difficult.
