Question AWG wiring issue on M2-ATX...???

Greetings!

Tomorrow i'm going to purchase wire in order to connect my M2-ATX plus a DC-DC regulator to car's battery and ignition (owner of seat ibiza '04)...

So as i see M2 package includes wiring of 14AWG (i don't remember right now the insulation temperature limit but certainly isn't low)...

What do u people propose? Should i buy an 14 AWG wiring running through the dash to the engine's battery (this means that wiring will not be in the open air so proper diameter and insulation must be used in order to prevent current temperature increase)?

I have been really confused about this matter so some help will be much appreciated..

PS.
Wiring won't be longer than 13-15 feet (4.5-5 meters) and as i am calculating the maximum amperage may not exceed 15 amps... I'm also concerned about high ambient temperatures in summer period (35-40 Celsius degrees)..
