Power Cable Installation Procedure
Begin the power cable installation as follows:
1.
Determine a routing plan, keeping in mind where the radio is to be mounted.
2.
Locate an existing hole with grommet in the vehicle fire wall, or use a 9.5 mm (3/8-inch) bit to
drill an access hole in the fire wall. Install a grommet with a 5 mm (3/16-inch) inside diameter
into the hole to protect the power cable.
3.
From inside the vehicle, feed the red and black leads (without the lugs attached) through the
access hole and into the engine compartment. (See Figure 1-1 Power Cable Routing into the
Engine Compartment)
