Try putting it on the top louver. You should be able to find some 
small clips you could put around the lip of the louver, or use some 
kind of adheasive. This way you wouldn't need to drill a hole in it 
like you feared with T-panel. You can then simply run the wire with a 
little slack on the side of the louver to allow it to still be raised.

Even with a hands free system, I still dont reccomend driving while 
talking on a phone!
