Default 2016 jeep jk antenna wire installation

Hi, I have a 2016 jk & am currently trying to install a new radio antenna wire but having some issues running the wire back threw under the dash from the antenna base any help would be appreciated!
I've trI'd coat hanger fishing line but I just can't get access to get the wire thru?

Did you pull out the speaker from the dash to make the job easier? The service manual makes this look like a 10 minute job. I do seem to recall getting the speaker box out of that side is a pain in the ass.

Laughed so hard I pee’d a little ….

Having spent a fair amount of time under/beside/ and upside down working on my dash - I’d set aside most of a Saturday’s daylight hours to make a clean / tight job on this project.
