    GPS Install on Driver's side vent

    Hi everyone!

    I got a Garmin GPS today and was looking for places to install it because I don't like having to take it out of view incase of theft and I don't like visible cables running everywhere. In my old car (Prelude), I was able to put it in the dash quite nicely and it worked well.

    After sitting in my drivers seat for a good 20 minutes tonight I've decided putting it over the drivers side air vent will work best. I figure I will just remove the 'shutter' piece of the air con (easy enough) and fit a bracket in it's place to hold the GPS. I also gather I should splice the power from the back of the cigarette lighter behind the centre console and put a female socket in there. Now here comes the problem - I would plug the GPS-supplier cigarette lighter to mini USB into this female socket but how on earth do I run it through the AC duct up to where the GPS would be sitting?

    Please let me know if I'm not being clear/could explain something better/you want pictures.

    Thanks in advanced for any help you can offer!

    Matt.
