Ok, so I just got a new truck. Well, new to me. And I don't want to destroy the paint with a mag mount antenna. SO, I'm thinking of getting something a little more "there."
The thing is, I don't know how to run the cable, how to mount the antenna, or how to install the radio that I've had for over a year and never put into my Jeep.
I would like some sort of mount that maybe connects to one of the holes aready in the rails of th bed? Easy removal of the antenna, but not the base so I can go through a car wash or something. I have a feeling that I'm going to need to run the cable through the truck door as I don't want to cut a hole into the truck.
I do have a cool little compartment under the middle front seat of the truck...so I can put the base in there and then run the head somewhere were I can see it. And if I needed, which I know is a no-no, there's a power outlet in that same compartment.
Anyway, if there's someone that more knowledgeable about this than I, I would love some ideas/help getting this into my Truck.
