I'm confused. Do you mean the center console or the glove box?

Did you ask Steve or Sunman?

I'm pretty sure this is how the cell phone integration OEM mod/add-on is done.

sounds good, i tried today, there is no access to the arm rest from the bottom floor of the arm rest, i think i might have to drill a hole through the armrest and fish the wire under the carpet and then through the hole in the arm rest and then up to the top portion of the arm rest.
the problem with my car's arm rest is there is something big thing blocking most of the arm rest area, so i have to get the wire to run in from the front end not the back end. but we'll see what we can doo.

i will mess around with it a little more if i get can get it to work then i'm set.

14cue: i think its a lot easer on ur car, if u want we can test it out on Sunday when i see u. i dont think u have something covering up the inside of the arm rest.
