Installing the CB

I just recently went out and bought a CB radio.. I was just wondering how everyone else hooked theirs up? Where did you put the ground/power wires etc....

Thanks guys

Hey Dan, how is the weather up there in Canada? Pretty cold, colder I bet than here. I do not have a CB, but I do have an emergency scanner. I use it for the fire co. I installed mine right under the headunit for the radio. You should have an empty pocket in there. I don't know if yours will fit, but mine did. All I did was cut the plastic and it is flush with the head unit. It really does look almost stock. I ran my power wire to the fuse box and tied it in with the ACC(essories) fuse. This works great because it does not drain the battery. I hooked the ground wire to the metal frame that holds the stereo. There are several factory ground wires there and I am sure that you can tie yours in with them. Goodluck. I am sure that others can get you some pictures, but I hope that this helps in the mean time. :fireman:

Hi Dan, I was trying to post 10 minutes ago, and all of a sudden my PC rebooted for no reason.
Weird, I have never seen that happen before.

Anyway, I have some tips on my CB page on how I use to have mine wired, and the way I have it now.

As usual.. thanks guys... and corey, i still drool over the look of your 4runner :eek:

PS... it is kinda cold up here. In Southern BC its not that bad, but as you head east (Alberta,Saskatchewan) It gets pretty bad.
