I route my wires ( power and GPS mouse ) via the A-pillars, getting dual channel system soon will route wire to rear camera over headliner.
Pulling the plastic shell off the A-pillar is easy, i first have to pull off a little triangular pice due to the design in my car there, then there is one screw holding on the mail A- pillar plastic, and some click thingies you just have to pull apart.
On my little cheap ass Suzuki car i can also route a wire behind the weather strip rubber molding without taking the rubber off.
When i put in headunit in my car i could not figure how to take the center console apart, so i drove to dealer and a guy there demoed for me how i just hat to leaver off some plastic trim so i could get to the screws holding most things in the center console in place.
Maybe you can get dealer / auto shop to show you how to pry off the plastic on the A-piller if you are the afraid to use too much force, or you could go to a salvage yard and find a wrecked car same brand as yours and practice on it how to pull off plastic from A-pillar, and then just leave saying you was not able to find what you needed.
It do take a little force to pry off most plastic trim, but not more than a 5 year old could dish out if it got the chance.

According to Auto-Vox, that port does not work as of yet. The M3 does not support GPS...yet. I think it is there for a possible upgrade. That said, not sure if it would be a good idea on a rear mirror because it would be distracting in traffic. I use a Garmin (I don't know WHY I typed 'mouse.' Must have been really tired. Sorry! LOLHi you mentioned your gps mouse.... I just got the m3 autovox and I notice their is a GPS plug in... I have a GPS mouse from a previous cam, what kind of software go I need to use the GPS.. Thank you
