NICE! Sounds like a wiring nightmare! What about antenna? I run a piggy back one out the back of the scanner! Can you integrate it in the sharkfin I wonder?

For daily use I have a 3.5' groundless fire stick bend to the curve of the lip of the CSL trunk, inside the trunk (which is CF, so less interference than metal).

It's far from ideal, but better than the through window antenna I was using before.

For rally use, I have a 5' long firestick that attaches to the rear tow hook. I leave the wiring for it in my trunk all the time, so it actually only takes ~5 min to setup when I need it.

My scanner I have splitter the factory AM/FM antenna with the factory radio for daily use, and a dedicated exterior antenna for rally use.
