I used the actual escort hardwire kit and it was about 12-18 inches short for me, but I just extended some wires and soldered them in. I routed the wires from the cup holder straight through the bottom of the center console. Crossed under the passenger carpet, and up the passenger A pillar.

I opted for the cigarette lighter power. I unhooked the harness and left the console cig lighter unplugged. Then I just used the normal size female electrical connectors and they plug right into the other end of the harness. Very easy and 100% reversible wiring.

Thanks again for the DIY
