Radar detector wiring to OH console, inc photos

I swapped the radar detector over from the 03 to the 04. I have included the photos for ease of reference. The wiring has changed from the 03 to 04. Fused B+ is located in the white connector for 03, and in the black connector for 04. On both trucks I drilled and put the ground to a sheet metal screw in the roof. Be careful when you punch through that you do not ding the roof. Also put the ground screw in the little recess so it misses the console mount. The console pulls straight down with four clips near the corners. You have to pull pretty hard to get it down. Then pull the visor mounts straight down and pull the front of the headliner down enough to move the console mount to the side so you can install the ground.
Edit-The type on the photos blurred when I shrunk them small enough. For 03 truck, use the white connector and the red/yellow wire. For the 04 truck, use the black connector (the lock is on the bottom side, use a small screw driver to depress it) and the red wire. It is also the largest wire in the black connector.
