Hey folks,

Just got a new ham radio (yeasu FTM-350AR) and need to install it in my 2005 Saab 93 (manual transmission).

It has a main unit I want to put in the trunk, and a wired face plate that will go up front in the cockpit.
(The main unit has a 15 amp fuse)

I can't seem to find any easy way to run either power from the battery to the main unit in the trunk, or the connection wire from the main unit up to the face plate.

Any ideas how to do this safely, without tearing the interior up, and without leaving exposed wires running along the floor boards? :cheesy:

Thanks!
Doug

How did your install go? I'm looking to do something similar - thinking about locating the rear unit where the audio amps are, and putting small 12V gel-cel battery back there as well.

I very much doubt you'll get a reply here, that post was from 21st May 2011, that was also the last time the poster visited this site.
