Default Alpine CDA-105

Hey guys,

before i pull the trigger on this headunit, what do you guys suggest I do with the USB cable coming from the back of the unit? From what I see its only a short 8-10" cable.

Did some of you just not use it?
or
re-route it somewhere? If so where to?

Thanks for all your help

I would route it towards the passenger side netting(on the tranny tunnel), should you want to use a zip drive.

I went with an Alpine ida-x305 w/ modifry wired DCI pnp harness and alpine speakers. I'm happy with my setup but I suspect I may eventually get an amp in the future.
