(2) Route cable down to lower vent. Before routing cable
further add two (2) pieces of foam tape to outer edge
of the vent on both sides to prevent vibration noise.
Route to other side of center console through cavity
below vent opening. Add one (1) piece of foam tape to
the edge of the metal framing where the cable(s) exit
near the vent. [Optional: Route Satellite cable in the
same fashion.] Secure cable(s) to nearby metal framing

behind and above small mounting bracket for the glove
box. Route cable(s) up towards C-channel in the glove
box's cavity. [Optional: Route Satellite cable in the
same fashion.] Fig. 7
(4) If routing the satellite radio bus cable ensure that they
are stacked vertically directly to the right of the glove
box mounting bracket to the point they are inserted into
the C-channel. Fig. 7
Ensure cables are stacked
vertically in this region.

CAUTION
If cables are not orientated vertically the glove box will
not fit nor shut properly.
(5) Add one (1) piece of foam tape to the sharp edge of
the lower part of C-channel where cable(s) will enter
the channel. Route cable into C-channel towards RH
door. [Optional: Route Satellite cable in the same
fashion.] Attach two (2) cable ties around C-channel.
While cinching the left most cable tie ensure that the
cables remain vertically stacked. Fig. 7 & 8

9. CABLE ROUTING (iPOD CABLE):
(1) Using a 1/8" bit, drill a pilot hole in the upper part of the
glove box 14mm +/-1mm (0.55in) from both front and
right walls of the box. Then use an 11/16" drill bit to
open up the hole. Fig. 11
Fig. 11
14 mm
CAUTION
Accurate measuring is important in this step due to
possible interference issues with the iPod cable and
the opening/closing of the glove box.
(2) Mark the iPod cable 762mm +/- 25mm (30in +/- 1in)
from the iPod connector (rectangular connector). Start
routing iPod cable from inside of glove box with DIN
connector end (round connector). Route out of glove
box through the drilled hole. Place split grommet over
wire and feed into drilled hole in glove box. A PGF
stick or other plastic prying tool may be helpful. Fig. 11

(3) Route cable up and over upper frame of glove box
cavity. Continue routing down and to the right of the
glove box cavity. Secure with one (1) cable tie on the
iPod cable mark made earlier to nearby harness. Fig.
(4) Follow bus cables to the iPod gateway mounting
location allowing enough room for a connection to the
module. Any extra cable can be wrapped into a 8"-9"
bundle. Wrap electrical tape around the bundle in two
(2) places for at least two (2) revolutions and secure
with (2) cable ties behind the nearby large harness.

(5) Cut one (1) piece of foam tape in half width-wise. Cut
slit in middle of foam tape piece 1/3 of the length.
Position the iPod cable 25mm (1") to the left measuring
from the center of the left most hole in the upper frame.
Place piece of foam tape over iPod cable and secure to
upper frame of glove box cavity with the slit facing the
front of the vehicle. Fig 14-1 & 14-2

NOTE
position 1" to left of hole
Fig. 14-2
When re-installing the glove box any slack needs to be
pulled out. When lifting the glove box in place pull the
cable from the inside of the glove box.
(6) Temporarily put the glove box back into place.
(7) With glove box in place, and the slack pulled into the
box, the distance from the grommet in the glove box to
the iPod end of the cable should be 560mm +/- 25mm
(22in +/- 1in).

the chassis from left to right (label facing up). Ensure
that the cable ties are pulled through with no slack and
the head is pulled right up to module. Fig. 16
(3) Attach another two (2) large cable ties, one to each of
the threaded cable ties from the previous step. Fig. 16
Fig. 16
(4) Cut the threaded cable ties from step 2 even with the
head of the cable ties from step 3. Fig. 16
(5) Using the provided alcohol wipe, clean the bottom of
the module and corresponding mounting location.
Attach provided double-sided tape to bottom of
module. Do not peel off tape liner on the other side yet.

NOTE
Partially removing the door molding may help provide
more room for maneuvering.
(6) Feed both large cable ties around metal frame as
shown. Keep track of the upper and lower cable tie.
Feed upper cable tie through small hole in frame and
connect to head of cable tie for a few clicks. Feed
lower cable tie around frame under the small tab and
