The easiest route is through the ECU cover, there's even a spare grommet on the rubber boot carrying all the other cables. Prise up the top and it drops straight down into the drivers footwell.

It's the big plastic box under the drivers wiper, far left of engine bay up by the bulkhead. This pic shows the ECU with the cover off and the ECU partially removed. You can see the red 8 gauge power cable on the right, just out of shot is the grommet that you can use on the big rubber boot for it to enter the ECU.
