[Mobile-Portable] Chevy Traverse: routing antenna cable

On my 2009 Toyota Tacoma I have a grommet with a wire bundle under the 
brake vacuum assist on the drivers side of the vehicle. I was able to 
poke a hole in the grommet between the wire bundle and outside of the 
grommet and pull both power leads and coaxial cable through it. As you 
said one had to be a contortionist. I am 57 and not quite as flexiable 
as I once was ;)
