Default Hardwiring a Radar Detector

I must say, this Accord's interior is pretty stout. I hardwired my TA and our Z71 in no time at all. It's easy when the interior panels can be pulled away from the structure of the vehicle easily and screwheads are exposed. I looked at the Honda for a few minutes and you can't even pull the front of the headliner down far enough to slip the cord in! Any tips on hardwiring a detector?

Thanks

start with the center arm rest all the screws will reveal themselves from there.

I will cut off the passenger size sun visor flap, and bracket it onto the headliner. The wire will run into the dome light so it wont even be seen.
