you need to run a wire to the key so that when you turn the key off the radio shuts off. I couldnt tell you which wire itd be. Just get some testers and thatll tell you. Sounds like a good idea tho. Good luck

dang it hopefully this dont double post. But you need to run a wire to the ign key that way the radio shuts off when you turn the key off. Also you need a ground wire

thanks alot man....really appreicate it...if anyone else know if i need anyhting else itd be great
thanks
merrr
Oh hey im sure there really isnt a place to mount it besides a blank panel. But you can get different holders. Like in boats there is some that mount into a blank panel some that hang down under neath the dash.
Besides that im sure your good to go. Sorry im not a professional but hey im trying to help as much as possible cuz that sounds like a cool idea. Oh hey if he isnt gonna use the radio all the time you wont hafta run a ign key switched wire. Just have a switch next to the radio for off and on. Fuse the power wire!.

ok thanks man....ill have to run some kind of antenna wont i....will just a wire of some sort work??
thanks
Get him satellite radio so he can listen to stern while he does his yard work. Haha.
shoot. i forgot about antenna wire. I can honestly tell you i have no clue how those suckers work. Maybe go to the junkyard and find a car stripped all to hell and see if you can find some sorta antenna wire and how its ran to the antenna. Buy that.. Try finding one that the antenna is real close to the radio so you have less wire. lol at howard stern comment . Thats about all i can help once again good luck
