Default Wire routing advice needed

So I'm just about done wrapping up winter projects on the scooter. I built a trailer (alomst done) and put a hitch on my bike (http://www.customcruiserchrome.com/flhrc)

Now I'm at the point of wiring and need some input. I went the easy way and got the component to plug into the Harley wiring (no cutting), and the converter which converts the 5-wire motorcycle wire to 4-wire trailer wire.

The wiring all pretty much happens under the seat, but I'm at a loss as to how to route the wires to the back of the bike and still look good.

Any ideas from those who have already done this?

TIA

My 07 - The rear light assembly runs thru a protective sleeve under the rear fender. It has a peel off adhesive that glues it there. Id suggest getting another one , mounting it on the other side & running your trailer light wires thru it.

No first hand knowledge, just thinking out loud...

I appreciate it - I didn't notice anything on my bike, but it is definitely worth looking under to see if there is something to work with. I just assumed it would be unsafe because of the proximity to the tire.

All the rear fenders route the rear lighting wires under the fender. This here part number 70522-06B will be what you need to get it done.
