    So far so good. Ran out of time and don't have power connected yet. Doesn't matter right now anyway because I need the aforementioned elbow. Without it the antenna cable makes the box stick out too far. And I haven't finalized the antenna mount either. Don't know about a 2nd gen but the box slides snugly into the ashtray hole with the tray and its bracket removed.

    Any issues running the coax? I'm trying to see how I'm going to route 18' seems like a lot of cable, idk.

    So I'm thinking I can do a 2' antenna on the hood and tune it like the article talks about or maybe go with a 4' on the front bumper. Don't think the rear bumper will be good since it'll be nestled right up to the tailgate.

    Tanks for posting!

    most awesomest thing ever. There was a thread about this in the 1st Gen forum, I think. It was a Cobra installed instead of a Uniden but I think same size box. Really snazzy.

    Please forgive the lame picture but here is how I ran my coax. It's along the driver side bed rail then down through a hole between the inner and outer bed skin at the bed front. Then it goes through a grommet (black circle) into the cab under the rear jump seat where the jack is stored. Then i went under the carpet along the driver door sill and over to the center stack. Have a little slack but i will take that up when I finalize the install. Took about thirty minutes and four screws in the sill.

    Try Breaker! Breaker! It's a terrible trucker movie but it has Chuck Norris and he drives a sweet 4x4 van with eagles and flags and freedom and shit.

    I need to get my truck interior scrubbed out. I smell about a half a tonne of dust inside of it.
