Depends on how hidden you want things. Firstly... regardless of what you do... be diligent about covering things with towels or something to protect the interior pieces. The back corners of the radio head unit are surprisingly sharp and will easily scratch anything they contact.
As for running the mic, I ran it to the little air vent by the driver's knee like they did on their install video.
Running the USB is trickier depending on how hidden you want it. There is a relatively easy path to run it below and behind the head unit into the passenger foot compartment... then you can pull it along the edge of the center console and have the wire hanging out over there.
If you want the USB more hidden, you have to get comfortable pulling out (at least partially) the center console and running it under there. You can check out my post earlier in this thread to see what I did. I'm happy with the outcome.
