Default Wire running question

I need to run a wire from the center console in my car to the engine compartment, the throttlebody to be exact. What's the best/easiest way for me to run the wire. It's for a toggle switch for a NX system.

The best way is to drill a hole insert an electrical feedthrough and attach the wire to either end.

The easiest way is to find an opening or drill a hole, insert a rubber groumet pass the wire through and use Blk RTV around the opening.

Try to route the wire thourgh existing wire harnesses for a finished look.

Remove the battery and there are a couple of firewall pass-throughs right there.
