    After I removed the blank knock out switch I fished a small steel wire through that hole and then towards the steering wheel. While laying under the steering wheel I could see the wire with a flashlight. I got that through and then taped the red and black to the end and pulled them through. Then ran those underneath the steering wheel to the fuse panel and cleaned it all up with some zip ties to existing wires. The bundle of wires in the netting type material that are shown in the second picture are from trailer brakes that the previous owner installed.
    Surprisingly the LED lights on the one I bought are not very bright and haven't bothered me at all during night driving. The setup works well and it's real nice to be able to charge without the key turned. Real pleased with this simple mod.

    Where did you end up ordering the USB port from? Was that the Ebay one?
