Default Hiding Radar Detector Wires

On an 1998 Audi A6 Quattro, I would like to install a radar detector next to the rear-view mirror. I have seen postings about placing the wires down the A-pillar, but the only way I can see to do that is to run the thin wires behind the rubber. Unfortunately, this is not very deep, and I feell that the wires might come out with movement and time.

Is there another way to run the wires from the visor, down the A-pillar and on into the fuse box? Thanks in advance............Andras

Ditto for the 99.5 2.8. There's a FAQ that covers this nicely.
