yup. when logging and driving. the way the iso com is best routed to be out

of the way is across the steering wheel. which will make the white box hang round around the cd player. i got a laser warning one time also when i had to pull the radar detector. in other words the laser in the dash cd player seems to put out some stuff

All CD players put out some 'stuff'. I route mine the same way, never had a problem.

It has been a while since i installed my ecodes..

Are you saying to cut the wire before it enters the plug that you attach to the ecodes? I just can't visualize what it looks like right now. What do you mean by "the rubber plug in the factory harness"

The imolavant writeup is very different from your suggestion

The imolavant writeup involves adding a 30 amp relay, and a bunch of soldering. Not that it is wrong, definitely not, it's just that moving the parking light wire to the city-lights seems a much more elegant solution.
