Where did you get your radio from and what did you get?Its on my list, thats for sure! Getting my radio installed right now, so will need the antenna capability soon....
Where did you get your radio from and what did you get?
I chose to get my icom ic-2730a from @lvjmotorsports. Keith not only does the Murs mod but also preprogrammed all frequencies used for raptor runs. One down side that comes from how they mounted your face plate is the mic can’t be plugged in. If you do any runs with a copilot it’s easier to let them do the radio talk when things get rough. I used the sunglass holder without any permanent mods, I plug my mic into the face plate and hang from the same area for ease of access for myself and copilot.On a tip from Rick at Freedom Motorsports, I ordered from GigaParts....
On a tip from [email protected] ordered from GigaParts...here's a couple photos of my install. Sorry about the crappy quality, but it's night here. I'm going to start a build thread for my truck and post videos up of what I'm doing...
Here's a couple quick shots....
Control head...we mounted it up on the face of the sunglass holder and it works perfect.
Body of the unit mounted under the drivers seat.
Mic on it's hook next to drivers seat.
I also got a Bluetooth headset. I had the MARS upgrade done by GigaParts too. Here's a parts list of what I ordered....
I took all this stuff down to a car stereo store in my area and paid them to install it. It was pretty speedy but I got a first class install.
