Default Wire distance help - sub enclosure and speakers

I just purchased ZEnclosures w/amp rack, plan to run the RCA's down the center drive console and the power cable would run along the passenger door sill.

My amp will be mounted right in between the strut bar and rear speakers.

Something similar to this:

If I plan to run RCA's down the center drive console, how much would I need fromt he HU to AMP? 10' or 16'?

Power cable would be coming down from the passenger door sill. Would 20' be sufficient to reach the AMP?

Speaker wires will go from the AMP and out to the left and right door panels where the crossover is located. Should I run the speaker wires down the center drive console or go along along the left and right door sills? Would 10' each side, be sufficent for speaker wires?

Do which ever is easiest. I ran about 15 feet of wire when I did my speakers.

10" will be more than enough.
