    Routing cables into cab

    Hey guys I'm in the process of mounting a UHF antenna and a mobile antenna on my bullbar, but there's only one problem. Where in gods name can you route the coax to go into the cab, I can't find any free grommets or even easy ones to access, anyone give me any tips on getting cables into the cab?

    Cheers in advance

    On the firewall - under the dash, about where the passenger floor well is, there should be a rubber thingie that leads into the cab.

    That's where all my cords go through. Hope my directions make sense? lol

    Um, mine didn't have one on passenger side.. but there is one behind the 1/4 pannel, just below the glove box.. bit of a pain to get to without removing the 1/4 pannel but doable
