Best Route for Cont.Cables to 3 Trunk Mounted Spectras ?

Post by Leadenwah »

I have to mount 3 mid-power Spectras in the trunk of a 2000 Ford Crown Victoria. I will be using the Gamber-Johnson "no drill" plate to mount the control heads so the control cables will run under this plate toward the rear of the vehicle.

This is a civilian P-73 2000 model.

What's the best way to route those 3 control cables to the trunk?
What's the best way to route 12 VDC cable back to the Spectas in the trunk ?

Many thanks,

Geo

Run all the cables down the passenger side track. Your battery power is on the passenger side. The side trim is easy to remove and the wire track is easy to open with a 7mm nutdriver. They will be well protected and theres plenty of room for cables.
