[QUOTE="cristheillest, post: 1847324, member: 61146"] [B]VHF Radio in Center Console [ATTACH type="full"]380553[/ATTACH] [/B] For this installation, I brought my antenna wire from the 3rd brake light into the front of the truck through the chase space used for the oem wire harness similar to what I did for the chase lights. Run the wire through the headliner down to the C pillar panels, run wire in front of air bags down into the chase space towards the driver seat. [ATTACH type="full"]380555[/ATTACH] Pop off the floor panel and fish the antenna wire below the carpet and have it pop up using the existing carpet opening as shown below. [ATTACH type="full"]380556[/ATTACH] Now for the actual radio installation inside the console, choose your side and install. Once installed, I drilled a hole directly on the side of the console towards the driver side seat. I made it just big enough for the antenna wire to fit through and big enough for the radio power clip to fit snugly inside of it. [ATTACH type="full"]380557[/ATTACH] I ran the power wires directly to the battery and also used inline fuses for the added projection. Popped the left console panel and ran wires towards pedals, remove clip holding carpet down and run wires towards the left side of the truck as shown below.
