Some vehicles, maybe all that have airbags?? tend to have a hole for when airbags go off otherwise the cabin would compress air. There may actually be a hole under your seat/carpet that you may not know about? I would not necessarily want to just run a cable through that, but maybe make it a bit bigger and add some paint to protect it or some sort of seal to the metal. Knowing the year and stuff might actually net some decent ideas hard to say. Feel free to PM me if you want to brainstorm, this stuff is fun to me, up to you. Drilling may or may not be necessary depending what you have for a vehicle. You may have ascertained already that it is required though for a cable run in your scenario, dunno.

It's an older Toyota Tacoma. No side airbags in the back of the extended cab. No holes either. It would definitely need be be drilled. I do get excellent results from my rear camera mounted on the headliner just above the rear window so it's not like I need to have an external camera but still, it is something I've considered for years, especially after Street Guardian introduced one a long time ago. I've got 5 camera in my truck. Why not 6?
