Cable routing methods?

Bought a vent clipped high speed wireless charger phone holder with automatic motorised grab. Pretty cool. 20 quid effort with good reviews from eBay. Plugs into the cigarette lighter. 

Running wireless AA and wanted to see my phone screen to run an inclinometer App on it and have more convenient access to the phone keyboard for entering destinations etc. 

Not sure how best to run the cables to hide them and not looking to pull the trim out or faff too much. I've got car trim tools but it's always a faff and TBH the cable is reasonably thick. 

Figured I'd route it along the trim gaps and use these clips that push into the tight gaps between trim intersections. Ordered at 3 quid from eBay

Has anyone used these before and are there better methods or clips?

Also unsure of running it over the steering wheel or under.

First world problems. Trying to minimise effort and not have unsightly dangling cables.

I wouldn’t want the lead to have possibility of being caught or snagged. So from your images I’d run it over the top.

That's Ernie, kind of where my head was going on this.
