Wire distance from wing-root to panel

Does someone have a distance for the wires exiting wing root area to center of the panel using "normal" routing paths for the 10. Just looking to leave "pigtails" with something close to what will be needed. Just a ball park number and to center of the panel would be most appreciated.

Cheers & thanks, Mike
 
Longer than you'd think. I know this is too long but I think I coiled up 12' at the root to ensure I wouldn't have issues. And that number was suggested to me by a reputable avionics shop. I don't recall lopping off any absurd amounts...
 
thank you

Derek, good number to have, always better to be too long...for now I will use 12 ft and of course added info & suggestions from experience will be appreciated. It is always surprising how the wire length gets consumed with a few zigs n zags.
Cheers, Mike
