He either has his ipod sitting in the glove box so the cables are routed there, or he did what I did years ago, and routed it there, but kept the cable going under the dash, up the center console, and in through the parking brake adjustment slot. This way I can keep my iPod in the center console and not have it bouncing around during spirited driving.

Since this seems to confuse this poor guy so much I'll just take a bunch of pictures tonight.

So you think the grom bluetooth is a total waste for someone who listens to high quality flac format or 320kbps and greater audio all the time? I currently have version 1 of their iPod adapter I bought years ago and love it, but wanted to add bluetooth to the unit (since they recently made one for my version), mainly so I could use it for calls as it's a pain to plug in my headphones to answer a call while driving.

Well i dont know about anyone else but my grom box is ridiculous, the port that connects from the box to the HU would not stop falling out, i wound up winding the cord around itself and shoving the box behind the ashtray location.
I then ran the supplied 3.5mm wire under the ashtray next to the shifter, used my 3.5mm extension cable to extend the distance and ran that through the little hole by the ebrake, then sloppily made a hard right and hid it under the silver trim. I have a custom mount for my phone that i plug it into that sits next to my ashtray and i have power and the 3.5mm jack running to that location.
