I was able to use a trim tool to push the wire into the space between the windshield and the head liner and "A" post. Then followed the seams down between the dash and the door to the fuse box under the glove box.

I ended up using the mirror top and blendmount. I had a local car stereo installer do the tap for $50. All went well.

Mirror tap is incredibly easily to do yourself. You just remove the plastic trip behind the rear view mirror, and tap it into the connector behind it. Blendmount is holding it onto the mirror for me.

The mirror tap is like a 5 minute install if you know what you're doing. Under 30 if you're fumbling around.

There seem to be a few different blendmounts, which exact one are you using?
