MiFi in Vibe GT

Here is my installation of a MiFi on a Braketron generic bracket.I used a unique routing for the power and antenna wire to get it under the dash. I never like previous methods I have seen: laying beside the console, in through the glove box, etc.I entered the dash through the pointy flat part of the console under the right hand trim piece. It is plastic and there is nothing behind it. I used a rat tail file to file off enough for the wires to pass through.The metal trim piece got the same treatment.Power was supplied by a Radio Shack 12v power plug with pigtail spliced into the cigarette lighter plug. I don't smoke and never use the plug (because it gets in the way) so I soldered spade connectors onto the pigtail in the lighter connector. Cigarette lighter hole was capped by a plastic plug from Sears.Large picture and closeup included.
