Wire routing help.

Just got my F250 with Lariat trim a couple of months ago and looking for a little guidance. Not new to modding but the SD is new to me. I got my Garmin mounted on a proclip and looking for a way to route the power couple behind the dash. This is a picture of the location. Can anyone guide me on how to either remove the media center or the trim behind the GPS? I'll be hardwiring to one of the wires under the dash driver side but just looking for how to "bury" the wire behind the dash. Thanks, Rodney.

Any images of where the ProClip attaches to the dash? IOW from the top of the Garmin looking down?

Sorry about that, it's a 2013 and has the sony premium sound system. I don't mind drilling a small hole in the bottom of the media center are if I have to. Just need to figure out how to get it out.

I will try to get a picture a little later of the proclip. It basically just clips inside the media center.

I do not have a exploded view of a truck that new. Here's a older f150 that is somewhat similiar in looks to yours and this is how it comes apart. But be careful, it's not your truck.



It looks like a lot of those panels just pull off.

Thanks, I actually traded a 2012 f150 for this '13 SD. They are different up top. The f150 has a small tray with two bolts. Very easy. My SD has a speaker and USB ports, 12v, etc. I guess I will need to try and find some bolts and start taking things apart.
