I just got hold of a Cobra C75 WXST-FR CB. I want to mount the remote under the drivers seat. I also have a FRS moble radio from Radio Shack that I want to add a 12V outlet for, also under the seat. Now I'm new at adding electrical stuff.....
Where is a good place to tap into to get power where I want it? I was thinking about running rom the battery through the firewall, but from what I've read on the board, I not easy to do. I'm still trying to deside on the antenna and the routing for all the cables. I have read alot on this subject however.
It's for a 2001 XE if that makes a differance.
Thanks for the help
Jim

hey guys on the cobra 75 does it have an outlet for attaching external speakers. Not speakers to listen to the radio through but speakers to speak out through like the cops. If not is there another comparable small radio that can do this.

Ivan I am not sure but your voice should be loud enough, the Ouray KOA will never be the same without you

Dude that koa has causes stigma's that I will never live down. Damn the KOA Damn them.


and remember 5 miles an hour.

i think there is a external speaker jack there
but i am not sure, becoruse my cd box is under the senter console

i am 99 % sure the jack is there


Matt whats wrong with adding 4 inches of the same guage or better guage wire to your cb wire
and reach the fuse box ?

i just run it from the baterry

didn't have any extra wire at the time.

don't really feel like going through the firewall needlessly. there are plenty of places to gain power in the driver compartment.
