Hey mate when i put mine in my ute i ran the cable through the firewall on the left. Found some good holes to stick it through up under the glove box. Hope this helps

thanks for the replies, threedogs what mic is that?

Threedogs, looks like yours is a Icom 440 not 400 Pro, the 400 Pro has controls on front of radio.

Where are you planning on putting the aerial, gutter or bullbar?

[BOWZER]

I have my aerial mounted on the bar lhs

If your Patrol Doesnt have ABS then you should find it easy to go through the Large Rubber Grommet on Passenger side of firewall and from there you can run it under the lip of the carpet to the center. What about mounting the UHF on the side of the center console near the gear leavers on the Passenger side? Next to the 4wd Leaver? Then can Get power and earth from back or Cigarette Lighter socket and hide all the wires under the center?

Thanks for the replies, Fletcha I do have abs but I managed to get the coax through that grommet and I already mounted my uhf in the location you thought of
