I don't have any pictures but I pulled the piece of plastic on the side of the dash and ran the cable up above the parking brake, thru that area and then along the back top of the dash to the center part of the windshield.
I have my GPS on the left and the CTS on the right.

the piece that the door closes up against with the round vent in it?
i tried (not very hard) to pull the door seal off a bit but it was either real tight or glued....seemed like it was glued and i didnt want to rip it.

Correct, that single vent on the side to the left of the headlight ****.
That cover pulls off. I start at the bottom and work up.
Here's a 2010 I've driven but it's the same dash for the most part.
EDIT: I don't remove it completely. I use the weather stripping as a hinge and fold it back a bit so I can get my hand in there.
