What is the best way to get the wires out of the way so they are not dangling in the driver's footwell. Is it possible to get behind some panels? If so, how? Otherwise, how could I attach the wiring to the underside of the dash without screwing into the dash or taping?

Cut the wiring. Then solder extension wires on. Then remove ur center panels and then fish it into the cigarette tray. Leave it in there concealed. LOL. Isnt that nice? I highly do not recommend it tho.

Sure, that would be nice. Doesn't seem nearly worth the effort though. Not to mention I have the 2point5 spec dock installed in the cigarette tray. I'm just looking for a simple solution to attach the wires to the underside of the dash in a way that can be easily reversed with no damage or remnants that anything was done.

You can always try strips of velcro. wrap some around the wires stick some pads on the underside of the dash and done. That way you can easily remove it for trips to the dealer and stuff. Also, it's cheap and easy
