Glove box...
 
Hello everyone,
I have a question about running wire out from my glove box. I could not find any holes in the glove box to do that. Has anyone been able to figure out how to run wires out of it without having to just leave the wires hanging out the opening and closing it on the wires? Thanks in advance for any tips...

Why would there be holes to runs wires out of the glove box?

It is an interface that displays what my iphone screen shows and there are wires coming out from it.

drill a hold in the back of the glove box?

I wanted to keep from doing that... =(

I would assume the Audi iPod interface wiring gets in there somehow ...

John,
You are correct. From the back of our headunits, there is a fiber optic cable that runs into the AMI that is fitted in the glove box. Unfortunately that route wouldn't work either. I would need a whole going out from inside the glove box to either the back of the glove box or back of dash etc. I'm trying not to have to drill a hole in the glove if at all possible.....

drilling a hole and putting a rubber grommet will look factory, if done carefully. done it dozens of times....

I had to drill a hole in the back to route my aux cable over to where my iPod is mounted on the dash.
