I don't have one to take a photo of, but all pickups generally run the same general direction. There will be a hole for the cable to go into and it will be by itself There may be a clip on the cable housing that snaps in. It will then route along the drivers side inner fender until it gets to the headlight area.It will then pass through between the headlight and radiator. It'll then go to the drivers side of the latch. As long as you don't kink it, it should go in fine. If it binds, reroute it, but it's fairly easy to find a good route for it.
