Running CB Coax Cable Through The Firewall??? 80 Series

Boston Mangler · 09-03-05, 06:31 PM

Hey Guys

Looking for some suggestions on how to route the CB Coax cable through the firewall on a 80 series. I couldnt find any obvious areas.

Any advice?

Thanks

there is a rubber grommet with a few nipples avaialble on the PS firewall. I just poked a center hole and then pushed the wire threw, the rubber should form tightly to it and keep the water out.

What kind of CB antenna are you using? I have a Wilson 1000 that I use and mount in the mid rooftop then route the cable on the driver side. Only use mine on a long distance trip listening to bunch of truckers.
