The short answer is from the passenger side where the cable is coming from the front the cable extends up into the upper innerstructure of the trunk and across to the driver side and down to the antenna.

Since dealer mounted that was the preferred method but we all know that a dealer prep guys sometimes have minds of their own.  ;D

Thanks and  that is what Bob pointed out(. The "preferred method" but like I said prep guys have a mind of their own. BTW mine was wired correctly on my car.
