    Eventually, I’ll get the amp, speakers and subs installed.
    Had to replace my Sony head unit today with a factory replacement and figured I’d run my RCAs down to the center console so I don’t have to pull the stereo again.
    Well it is about 110* in the garage and I could not find an easy route down. With just the head unit installed. I was soaked in sweat and did not feel like fooling with it too much.

    where is the best pass through on a 2014.

    There are a couple holes on each side of that plastic box just under the headunit that light would pass through but not big enough for the RCA heads to pass through.

    The best way is to pull the silver surround out, but that requires this.....

    I didn't go that route.
    It took some time to 3 pair back, behind, and around the climate control years ago, but it can be done..
    There isn't much room though.
    Another way, if they are long enough, is to run them down around the heater vents and tuck them up under the console..

    You'll find a 3' HVAC duct tie-down it is perfect for fishing cable though the dash..

    Pull the trim piece above the glove box and you can reach in there and fish them down towards the passenger side floorboard.

    I originally ran mine passenger side tracks. I always had a high frequency hum. Then I read a post on here about the harness in there that caused it. Ran the rca's down center console to back and hum is gone.

    It just pops out. It's held in with clips.

    Perfect. Was not sure if any other pieces need to be removed to let it pop out
