More knowledge fishing. Is there a known way to route a new cable from the front to the rear of the coach  . My desire is to use the overhead cable run if possible.

Overhead there is almost never a path.. Most front><Rear runs go down and follow the chassis frame rails.

I just finished running a few wires from the rear engine compartment all the way to the front of the coach, 40ft. This was primarily for the 10 ga. blue electric brake wire to activate the trailer brakes. I included a couple of extra 14 gauge wires for a future project. It took over 60 feet of wire and it was run inside a split plastic wire loom. I used either the existing wire route until reaching the axles, lower bays and tanks. Took the wire loom underneath and secured it about every foot or so. With the wire going up and down, sometime sideways and back to one of the chassis bay rails, and then up and over each of the axles, it takes a lot of wire. Not an easy project but it was the only route to take.

It would be either a HDMI or a component video cable.

adj....I plan on running 45' of HDMI to my back TV. I'm going to bring it down the front "A" pillars, into the front generator bay and then back along the frame rails and back up through the rear wall.

Dale dont know what coach you have but it should have 2 ea 3 to 4 inch plastic pipes one on each side of the frame from just in front of the engine to just back of the front axle to run hoses, wires and ect in, dont think you are going to be able to use the roof, the only thing I know that is reachable is the AC duct.

Thanks everyone. I have run a CB cable on the frame on a previous coach. I guess I'll have to do the same for this cable run.
