does anyone have any reason to oppose me routing my wire for my battery relocation like this? (of course adding the necessary grommets)

the "stuff" in your eyes when you switch on the HVAC is the foam seal that is on nearly every vent/tube in the HVAC system and on the blower housing and the heater core.

Lowes/Home Depot has something that replaces that, don't remember what its called tho, and it dont break up when it ages
