Let me remind you that you are messing with stuff that sells out for free root
privileges - hence there is quite a barrier for configuring this kind of stuff,
and DBus does it this way by design.

From KDE4Macros.cmake

install(FILES ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${HELPER_ID}.service
                DESTINATION ${DBUS_SYSTEM_SERVICES_INSTALL_DIR})

So you can definitely set DBUS_SYSTEM_SERVICES_INSTALL_DIR and change the path.
Remember that what you want to change are _system_ autostart services, and not
session ones (which is what the other variable you mentioned does).
