So she's a 5 seater good for 3.5 T..
Man ... I go away for a few days and what happens .....
Kallen, with the GU's, I find that the UHFs with the display and speaker in the handset are easier to install and use. You may want to look at these before you open the box on the one you have bought
Mic
Na wife choose. We have the outback O/H console so it'll be home up there..Quote:

I can't handle things dangling in peripheral vision. Drives me nuts. UHF mounted low gets my vote.
Outback have a bracket to hold the cable up. .Quote:

If she changes her mind I do like it next to the gear lever..
Or I'll get a remote hand peice unit and run hand peice down to gear lever..
Either or..
I agree with Darren, would drive me nuts up there.Quote:

You would be best off getting the mic extension to put the mic on the center console if you want the CB up there.
So I got the buts for the o/h console to fit the smaller radio and then the missus comes around to putting it next to the gear stick...
So out come all the wires I had run the nights before..
Out with the console..
Enlarged the hole that was there to fit the unit in..
Bloody double plug is a bit long so it's not fitted 100% but it's in for a weekend on the beach lol

Was old school having your mike cords dangling from the roof,
can I suggest you run 2 ext speakers One on your oh shit bar or A pillar moulding
and one on the passenger side.. you wont miss anything thats said then.
Nothing in the mail today?????
the UHF with the controls on the mike are very user friendly
cant see but is it 80 channel? Good antenna those too.
agree with the mike ext cord I think mine is Rj45 and 6' long.Quote:

I'll see how the speaker goes tomorrow but I have an external in the shed..Quote:

Ow and yes recived my egr blank thankyou..
Now for the scan gauge and catch can lol
could you use a tweeter speaker as an ext speaker???
just thinking more discreet ontop of A pillar moulding
Maybe.. but this is a small one anyway. About credit card size. Just from testing it in the drive way I think the normal speaker is going to be fine
Nice buy. I have the same drawers, love them
So chassis was quite sand blasted up front so this arvo have gone about getting a few sperm suits and getting under the car with first Degreaser, then a car wash and a good high pressure clean..
I'm doing the whole chassis with a coat of kill rust black and then tomorrow will be getting back in another sperm suit and spraying the whole under body with fish oil..
Happy with the outcome so far..

After just the kill rust.

Stainless flat using original bolt holes..
Solid as a rock in there..
Next I have to make a manifold to take the new pressure cut off, a gauge and outlet line..
It's a nice fit and heaps of room..
Might even get a small 25-30L water tank in there.
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2016/03/77.jpg
It's gonna get pretty hot in there mate. Maybe a small computer fan that comes on when the compressor has power?
Youre a thinking mans man PooQuote:

Dont forget a non return valve otherwise
the system will leak back past the piston

Just read through this thread. Again very nice pick up, and good score on those roof bars!
@ Kallen seeing you have the rear inner panels off, IYO would
you think those rear seat belts would fit the front driver/passenger
ones
No idea mate. I'd say they are shorter..Quote:

God dam what a pain..
5 hours!!!!!
I know why the charge $300+ to install them...
So I have also fitted up the awning with an led light strip down the mount to a cig socket to plug into the rear...
Cant wait to use it all..

Nice job mate, looks great. How'd you go squeezing in half a tube of sikaflex to seal the airbox to the inner guard.
