I did the same thing.  When putting the liner back together I added some
glue because I tore the liner.  Basically I tore the liner where the
stitches are.  Be very, very careful while doing this.  It's not difficult
just be careful.  In order to run the cable to the front I think I ran it
along the rear panel and then along the driver side carpet.  I'll check and
let you know for sure.
