[QUOTE="All The Way, post: 194117, member: 2481"] Well after hunting on the web I couldn't find a mic mount that would require no holes. Sooooo after looking at the interior trim for a bit I saw a spot that might be perfect. Off with the center console to investigate. There is a gap between the black plastic and the orange top piece. Looks like its enough for the bracket that came with the radio. [ATTACH=full]191395[/ATTACH] Time to pull the two pieces apart. You can see in the picture there are four tabs you have to pinch together to release. [ATTACH=full]191396[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]191397[/ATTACH] I don't have a picture of this next step, sorry. Once the two parts are separated I put the mic clip between the two parts and put it back together. It's wedged in so it can't come out. Here is one similar to what I have. [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Microphone-Clip-Amateur-radios-Screw/dp/B004LYIAEY]Amazon.com: Microphone Clip for Amateur & CB radios - Screw-in: Electronics[/ame] Here it is together. [ATTACH=full]191398[/ATTACH] In the truck [ATTACH=full]191399[/ATTACH] Another thing I did while I was at it was run the aux speaker wire from the radio to just below the sync port. This way if I have to hear everything I can plug it in to the truck. [ATTACH=full]191400[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]191401[/ATTACH] Now I need to study my ass off. I take the tech test on the 5th.
