I was able to run the wire up the a-pillar and by just pulling it back and tucking it in.

Ran mine up the a pillar and mounted it at the very top. 100% out of sight and works well enough for me.

I mounted mine on the cruise control stalk. The microphone had a built in clip and just clipdped it on. Ran the wire along the bottom of the instrument cluster and is hidden. Mic works great in that location.
