Option 1 - Route the Cable Through the Roof
1. Connect the antenna cable to the antenna. Hand-
tighten, then tighten with a
7 ⁄
16
" wrench for 1 ⁄
4
turn
to ensure an electrical and weatherproof
connection.
2. Slide the rubber sealing boot up the cable until it
covers the antenna cable connector. This boot will
help protect the connector from the elements.
3. Choose a location on the roof for the
1
⁄
2
"-diameter
cable access hole. Inside the vehicle, remove the
headliner to access the underside of the roof
where you will be cutting out the hole.
4. Using a 1 ⁄
2
" hole saw, cut out the cable access hole
in the vehicle’s roof and smooth the edges of the
hole to protect the cable.
5. Center the backing plate over the cable access
hole to locate the three fitting mounting holes.
Use a center punch to mark the hole locations.
