I’m adding a backup camera to my 2010 TL base model (added android head unit). I plan on running the video signal cable from the center console to the rear trunk. I’ve found instructions on how to take a part the center console after sometime searching this site, but what I’m looking for is diagrams/disassembly instructions on how to route the cable from center console to the rear trunk. Can someone point me in the right direction?

 

go under the seats, or carpet for a very clean install.


for me; i would go through carpet via the door sills. the door sills can be removed by finding the direction of the clips and either pulling up or sliding it over to remove from clips

 

^^^ I recommend going along the door sills as well. It’s easier and it’ll just be as clean. I’ve taken apart my entire center console plenty of times and can tell you it can be a pain in the ass.

 

Great tip using the door sill. Once I get the cabling in there, is there a direct outlet that will lead me into the trunk?

 

if you remove the backseat you'll see the trunk pretty exposed and can just push cabling through any crevice you choose.
