I just ran the supplied cable under the rig forward to the Propane tank area, then up and into the front storage and out to the pin box. On the rear I enclosed the cable in surface mount wire track from Lowe's in a color to match the rig.
In the end I don't use the camera much as I prefer to have DW back there guiding me. I looked into the NAV-TV module interface to get it to stay on but the cost was more than a rear viewing camera. I spent about half the cost of Furrion for an off brand wireless cam just to help with changing lanes and passing.
Also, I didn't get the OEM gps because it wasn't truckers gps and I already had a Magellan from my previous truck.

Course, now the cab looks like mission control with all the screens...
