The dashboard is easy to take off, there are screws on the bottom underneath the dash holding it on and at the top are clips that should pop off and if you are careful, they won't break. It should come off from the driver side to the passenger side. The overhead console should also have some basic screws holding it up, they should be able to be removed and then you should be able to slide the wire above the ceiling carpet, you may want to use a small metal rod to help push it. To get to the wiring at the floor, the interior side panels can be unscrewed, the screws may have plastic tabs covering them that you can pop off, you should then be able to lift the carpet at the edges if any wires run below it or if you want to run the wires below it. Let me know if you have any questions and I will be glad to help
