6. Radio Wire Routing

(See Figure 1 - One Piece Transceiver Installation, or Figure 2 - Trunk Mount Transceiver Installation as needed).

a. The power leads (fused) should be brought through a grommeted hole (provided by the installer) in the front cowl.

For trunk mounted transceivers, the cables should continue on along the driver's side door sills, under the rear seat and into the trunk through a rear bulkhead.

Maintain as great a distance as possible between radio power leads and vehicle electronic modules and wiring.

b. If the radio power leads need to cross the engine compartment, they should cross between the engine and the front of the vehicle.
