Hi Everyone. The Unit still has not been received by DHL. So still in waiting mode.

The good thing is I got all my accessories like Aux Cable, usb extensions, the pry tools, etc from Amazon.

So I went ahead with just installing the Aux and USB extension cable.

1. Removed the panel on the passenger side. Just the long panel that runs mostly along Side.

2. Used the pry tool to remove the Aux and USB panel inside the center console.

3. Used the pry tool to remove the Shifter Cover just like the instructions above (1) put a tape on all of the trim and (2) started on the front left corner. The drawing from above were super helpful. - thank you Argento.

4. Before I unscrewed the shifter assembly I had an idea.

5. I shined a torch light inside the the center console.

6. I looked through the last hole from Step 1. I could see the light at the end of the dark tunnel.

7. So I attached the cable to a thin wire stick I made from a old wire hanger and sent it towards the light.

8. Moved over to the inside of the Center console and saw the wire to my delight.

9. Fished the wire out.

10. Used the triangular and circular files as recommended by Argento - thank you.

11. Tucked the excess wire in the side panel.
