How old is your connect,on my 05 model there is a rubber grommet underneath the n/s/r wheel arch liner,I took my 7 core cable in through this route & ran twin core above the back doors to the o/s/r light cluster for indicator & sidelight

Same here, Definitely didn't/wouldn't drill a hole for the cable, I took out the light cluster and pushed a stiff plastic rod down through the gromet, taped the wires to the end and pulled them back up.
