Default suggestions for routing ipod cord from glove box?

Just wondering if anyone has a good suggestion on how to route the cord from an ipod dock from the glove box. I have an icelink that I have been using for a while and just keeping the ipod in the glove box. I am thinking about buying a mount and putting it in a more accessible place but haven't seen a good way to get the cord out. Any suggestions on how to do this would be appreciated.

Default i routed mine to the tray behind the ashtray...you'll have to cut a notch out of it

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/102996/dsc01660.jpg"></center><p>you'll have to pull the headunit and reach behind to feed the cable through from the glovebox down to the tray.

to remove the tray, lift up on the shift boot and remove 2 screws closest to the ash tray. lift up and pull the ashtray towards you. the tray will now come out.

i used an x-acto knife and a file to notch the tray.

Default Tuck it under the edge of the console ...

The DICE wire is tucked under the bottom edge of the black console piece and then runs up under the dash to the DICE itself, which is behind the glovebox.
