Default Installing CB in a 1999 Ford Ranger?


wrote in message
oups.com...
Ok, so I've been wanting a CB for a long time now and finally bought
one - a Uniden PC78 Elite Bearcat, 40 channels & all the goodies you
could ever want.

I've got a 1999 poor man's Ford Ranger (branded as a Mazda B-2500).
Here's my trouble:

1. Electrical connection is supposed to be made to the ignition
accessory connection. Don't know where that is.

2. Can't figure out the best place to mount the thing. Anybody who's
been in a Ford Ranger knows they're rather cozy. Mine has a 5-speed
manual, which eats up all the space over the hump up against the dash.

Anybody want to help out?

I had a 2002 Ranger and what I did was remove the ashtray and attach the
radios mounting bracket with zip ties.
As for the power connection go to the local auto store and get some fuse
taps (they attach to a fuse ) and run the
power line to that . It's a good idea to use a inline fuse on the power line
at least 3 amp.
