Ham Radio Install in 2017

I just installed my radio today. Here's a few pics.

I mounted the face here:




The main radio is mounted here:



The mic has an extension as has been run up thru the console and is between the drivers seat and console:



All wires are secured and hidden. I have an antenna ordered and will add pics once it arrives.

 

Looks clean. How do you have the head mounted?

 

3m two sided Super Strength Molding Tape. Super strong and easy.

 

Did you use the head mount or tape the head it's self? Also, how did you route your mic wire?

 

Taped the head itself so it was flush with the dash. The mic wire ran under the panel below the steering wheel to the console and tucked it up under the center console all the way back to where I mounted an RJ 45 coupler (also with the tape) that the mic is plugged in to.

 

Very Clean. Looks great

 

I got the antenna installed a couple days ago.

 

how did you ground your antenna? what mount? how is the performance

 

Looks great! What model radio did you get?

 

Looks good.
I was originally thinking of mounting my head in that spot but I found the spot tough to view and fiddle with the buttons while driving.
What antenna are you using?

 

Where does the Speaker broadcast from? Mic, Base Unit or Aux Speaker? Nice clean install.

 

I considered mounting the head unit there but can't see it when driving as it is blocked by the steering wheel.
