Default Bringing a Wire from the Bed into the Cab

So I bought one of those sensor kits (no camera) that you mount on your rear bumper, run the wires from the 4 sensors to a control unit, then run the wire from the control unit up to the indicator.

Since I have a cap on my bed, I plan to just mount the control unit somewhere in the bed area, then somehow run the wire up to the dash area.

Question: What's the easiest way to get that one wire from the bed to the dash? If drilling is involved, where's a good spot?

Thanks in advance.

you can drop it out of the bed/cap area in the rear stake pocket. There is a hole on the side of my 2013 rear pockets just phish it straight down. While you are at it, might want to pull a thick dummy hot wire to the bed for future toys and goodies not yet thought of... kegorator, rocket launcher, heater for the dogs...
