Have you looked at the "Electrical Install Pics" thread? Take a look at that and see how people are running their wires and decide how you want to run them. I have my motor positioned so that I can solder it in the car but still have the wires go under the drive shaft to the esc.
As for soldering, do you have a good quality iron? Soldering is much easy with a quality iron and find something to practice on first like a battery connector before you do the esc/motor if you are worried about messing it up.
