Default C5 changer harness install question

I now have the factory CD changer harness in hand and would like to route it in the same location the factory would of. Does anyone know the route this cable takes from the passanger footwell to the back center compartment?

I can help you in the trunk area. I just moved my changer into the passenger side small trunk compartment. The wires for the changer dropped down about 2" away from the trunk lock wires and sensors. It was wrapped in the same bundle from there and disappeard behind the passenger side trunk light. I can only assume it followed all the way up to the passenger side footwell.

thanks for the response. I found the actual dealer installation instructions on the internet and it had the cable routing shown.

:cheers:

Can you post a link to these routing instructions please? I'm trying to hook up my Archos Jukebox in a similar manner. :)

Does GM carry the cables?

I am tempted to just take the car and the changer to the dealership and let them do it...
