Very nice install. Rare to see the attention to detail that you have put into your installation.

Do you have a picture with the Toughbook mounted? Curious to see how that looks in there. Also, does the 19" whip on the back move in the wind much when driving? Enough to hear it at all anyway.

I have a small VHF whip on my right rear trunk and heard it whistling one day. Then realized that ice had formed on it and was causing the whistling noise. Broke the ice off and all was quiet again.

Once again, great install, and attention to detail.

As requested... sorry for the delay.

Here is the install as I use it, and with the Toughbook in place. I rarely use the XTVA, so I keep the mic for that tucked under the seat. The only thing not pictured is the XPR5550 brick, which is mounted opposite the XTL5000 in the exact same manner. Don't mind the dirty car...

Again, an exceptional install and great use of the space available in the vehicle. This one ranks high! Thanks for sharing!

Is this just your personal vehicle and the radios are for just hobby/ham use or is this a work vehicle?

That is one good install. Looks so professional and so well done. I'm impressed at the install seeing that most cars these days are scanner/radio unfriendly.
