Devices, instruments, systems and techniques for guiding an implant to a location adjacent a bone anchor (30, 130, 230) include a guide member (10, 110, 210) with a connecting portion (12, 112, 212) and a guiding portion (14, 114, 214.) The connecting portion (12, 112, 212) is adjacent the bone anchor (30, 130, 230,) and the guiding portion (14, 114, 214) extends proximally from the connecting portion (12, 112, 212) and is adapted guide an implant therealong toward the bone anchor (30, 130, 230.) The guiding portion (14, 114, 214) is flexible to facilitate manipulation and implant placement in the patient's body.
