George, Can't pull the link. Look for power spots for two radios. a kenwood tmv-7a and a kenwood commercial radio.

Link was just a picture of the control head.

For power, I ran 10ga wire direct from the battery through the left hand firewall boot. There are fuses on both the feed and ground leads. Once into the cabin you can do just about anything you want. Mine goes across the shifter hump and out under the right seat where the Icom xcvr module is located.

The antenna was very easy. I used an Austin tri-band antenna on a Larson magnetic base. The magnet mount is located at the extreme rear left corner of the roof which allows the coax to enter the car through the rear hatch seal. I made a drip loop at the bottom to keep water out and secured the coax to the screw that is located at the lower left corner of the hatch. The coax goes across the spare tire area, under the rear seat, and up via the threshold panel in the rear and front door opening.

I'll post some pix later on.
