The interior of my 2-door is completely Line-X'd, so I have not a stitch of carpet to hide any cable under.

For you guys who have the Cooltech LP antenna mount: is the supplied 18' coaxial cable long enough that I will be able to route it from the LP mount all the way to the front of the interior and across the header via the ROLL BAR PADDING so I can install a CB above the rear view mirror?

Thanks for the input.

Thanks for the input, fellas. I will give it a go and report back with how my final routing goes.

 

I have a 4-door and had to get a 6 foot cable to make it work.

 

I'm a pretty busy "fella" - no way I could know the gender of all the forumites here...

 

Thinking about using the same system on mine.
I take it you used a barrel connector to connect the coax.
How well did it match after the install?
Im also wondering if using a 102" antenna and spring will work with the Cool Tech mount.
Iv got two or three in the garage.
Thanks.

 

I know, brother. Or sista.

 

Unless Cool Tech has decreased the length of coax that they give you in their kit, I easily mounted the antenna in the license plate and routed the coax through the roll bar padding, mounting the CB at the rear view mirror. I had a couple of feet of coax to spare. And I have a 4 door!

 

Utah, that's great news. That's the way I'll have to route my cable since my interior is Line-X'd. Thanks for the positive vibe, I've go hope now!

 

I ran mine from the right sided bumper mount thru the padding on the roll cage to the front passenger side, into the molding along the a pillar on the side of windshield and into the unit loacted under the glove box near the console.\

Length is not an issue for me,...
