Should I run the wires through the crawl space or through the attic?
How do I get the wires down the wall to the hole I have to drill in the
wall? Thanks for any help.

Either way. In addition to the other's suggestions here, I've used a
specialty drill bit to fish wires (in my case cable and CAT-5). They make
a *long* flexible shaft drill bit for this purpose too. One cuts a hole
for an "old wiring box" and inserts the bit into that hole and drills up
or down, as the case may be. The "plan" is then to hook a mesh widget
around the bit, tie a fish-line to the eyelet at the end of the mesh
thingy, and pull the fish-line back with the bit. The latter part didn't
work so well for me though. I used a fish-tape to find the hole and snake
the line back up. The drill bit worked like a champ though. I bought a
4' one at the BORG for about $20.
