Welcome to this forum! I've renamed your thread, and moved it into the stock 2002-2005 section. There should be room around the bulkhead connectors to run extra wiring. If not, then you could drill a new hole, and use a rubber grommet.

^^ this... under the brake booster are a couple sizes of rubber gromets that are solid. Pick one that is larger than the wires you need, pop it out from the interior side. Find it on the floor/frame. cut an X into it with an utility knife.. feed wires through.

I know this post is a little late but here's how I ran my wire:
I found a great path for running wires through the firewall on my '02 XLT that should provide you with plenty of room to run wire.
This is the view from the engine compartment. The access is behind the brake booster. Look behind the brake booster and down and you will see it:
This is the view from inside the Ex. Follow the brake pedal up to the firewall and look to the left. The red arrow points to the piece that you peel back and the black arrow points to the grommet:
Hope this helps out. :biggthump
