Vehicle Installation
Convertible:
1. Bring the antenna cable from the antenna into the trunk at the front edge of
the trunk lid . Keep any bends in the cable loose . Tape or tie the cable along
the inside of the trunk lid to the trunk lid hinge strut .
2. Allow enough slack in the cable so the trunk lid can easily open and close
and keep the cable away from hinges, gears, etc ., that could crimp or cut it .
Route the cable along the trunk wall and into the cabin through a conduit or
along an existing wiring harness .
3. Route the cable through the main cabin area under the interior trim, towards
the front of the vehicle . Use a blunt plastic putty knife or similar blunt tool
to lift the plastic trim just enough to tuck the cable under underneath . Avoid
side airbag locations on back pillars and above the doors . Airbag locations
are marked with "SRS" logos . Be careful not to crimp or cut the cable .
4. Bring the cable out from the trim near the front of the cabin and route it
under the carpet toward the dashboard or console . Coil any excess cable
in a hidden location, such as under the carpet, keeping it away from any
vehicle pedals or controls . Secure the excess cable with wire ties (purchased
separately) .
5. Bring the end of the cable out at the
PowerConnect Vehicle Dock location .
Leave yourself enough cable so you
can easily connect it to the antenna
connector of the dock .
6. Continue with "Step 6: Connect
the Magnetic Mount Antenna and
PowerConnect Power Adapter" on page
