I'm interested in this mod myself. I am doing a CB install in my 05 Sport within the next two weeks. I'll try to figure it out if I have time and post if someone hasn't replied by then. It would be nice to figure it out so that I could send the audio from the CB to the FM radio via a low power transmitter and have it work when the ignition is off.

if your goal is to have your cb work w/ the ignition off, how bout skipping all that and just hardwiring the cb to a constant power source?

check the tech section and look for mine and corey's aux fuse box mod and cb install writeups.

My reason for doing this would be for keeping cig plug accessories such as phone charger, flashlight charger, etc. on when I turn off the ignition. I really don't want to hard wire that stuff in as it moves from vehicle to vehicle with me. I intend to hard wire the CB already. I'll check out that other thread as well.
