Wire Help

[94chev]

Hi,

I recently got a new cb and a antenna kit. I have a 94 chevy silverado ext. cab and I would like to mount the antennas to the bed rails. The problem is that I don't know where I should run the wires from the cb to the antennas. I am not afraid to drill any holes the question is where? If there is a certain spot on the bed of the truck that you might think is a better spot to mount the antennas as well let me know. Pictures would help a lot but any advice on this would help me a bunch.

Thanks,
94chev

Run the coax under the carpet or under the door sill plate at the bottom of the door opening and out thru the back wall of the cab. Then all you have to do is go up between the cab and the bed split your antennas and mount them to the rails.....Hope this Helps Ya.......Hoser

If you don't have an existing rubber washer or the like, take and drill a 3/4 " hole the same as you would if installing an NMO mount, then take a rubber 3/4 " hole plug and put in the hole then you can take a pocket knife and make an opening for your coax cable to pass through.

I ran all my coax thru the 'vent' that is on the rear of the cab. It is tricky the first time, but after that it is real easy.
