Default CB power path for 2013

Can anyone suggest a path for my CB power leads to the battery or any other power sources?

On the passenger side, remove the side panel on end of dash. You will see a hole filled with foam. Run your wire with a coat hanger through there. There is also a bolt there for a good ground spot

The 2013 dash is different and I don't want to break anything ... It has less than a 100 miles on it.

the 2007-2010 dash looks different then the 2011-2013's but you can still remove the sides like the instructions show.

The side will snap off, I have had mine off several times and it's fine.

I can't get the air vent out, I've turned it and pulled but the damn thing wont come out ... I've had the ones on my 2010 out and they come out easy, am I missing something?

No, you are not missing anything. I couldnt get the vents out on my 12 either. I just took a knife on the side panel and popped it off
