    Do you have the wire and/or connectors? Are you going to run this straight to the battery or through a relay?
    Or is Saturday just an install day and wiring will be another?

    HI COREY! Fancy seeing you here.

    Cb is going straight to the battery for less interference. Probably need a terminal ring I guess.

    TREY! Small world right!?
    Do you know if that CB can handle being directly wired up? Also you don't need a relay for that. You will probably need an in-line fuse.

    I seen it done directly to the battery several times. And I think the harness has an inline fuse in it already. But I will find that out for sure on Friday.

    I haven't looked up how many amps that cb needs but if you dont want to potentially fry it the use the fuse. 15-20 will most likely be the right one.

    I have a few 3 amp fuses if you don't want to go out and buy them.

    What's that? I rain my coax and power lines for cb through my ac drain grommet

    Edit: Just looked it up, doesn't seem worth it.

    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.
    Yeah I have it for xb1 and PC. Played xb1 for 10 mins. It was completely broken. PC isn't like that at all. Better than Asetto Corsa and Forza 6 IMO. I have a logitech g25 but it looks like they have a new one that works on PC and xb1.

    I have dirt rally I think it's called, which is really good but pretty hard.

    It's convenient to stick with console stuff because I have friends that also play that can't or won't build a PC, but also seems like there's more players in general so I'm not always just racing AI fields. I suppose I'll just have to wait and see whether I prefer GT sport or Forza (and also Project Cars 2) when they come out to determine if I get the PS or XB version of the wheel, because I think either one you get will also work on PC. I guess it just determines which one I want on PC because Forza will be on both PC and XB now.

    Also, I assume so but would you recommend the G25 over the T150?

    I have no idea, g25 is only one I've used but it is good. The main thing about a wheel is mounting it securely to something sturdy. Having the wheel or pedals move around pretty much ruins it. I got this stand which is expensive but worth it to me to be able to quickly set up or fold up and hide in a closet when I have people over so they don't think I'm dork lmao
