Wire harness routing device
A wire harness routing device is for routing a wire harness under a sliding seat. The wire harness routing device includes an extra length storing case and a protector. The extra length storing case is disposed on a floor that is opposite a lower surface of the sliding seat. The protector is movable with respect to the extra length storing case. The wire harness includes an inner extra length portion and an outer extra length portion. The inner extra length portion is disposed in the extra length storing case and extends toward the protector and the outer extra length portion extends outside the extra length storing case from the protector toward the lower surface of the sliding seat. The sliding seat includes a pair of contact members that come into contact with the protector according to movement of the sliding seat and move the protector.
