Gazzar Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 I've been given a thunderpole CB. The plan is to fit it to the truck cab roof, hanging from a bracket under the radio in the la Salle roof lining. It comes with a gutter mount aerial, with an integrated cable that has a largeish connector. What the smartest way of getting from outside to inside? I'd rather not feel a massive hole in the roof, and there's a couple of metres of cable to hide. Series 3 truck cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo Murphy Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Through the closing panel at the rear bottom of the truck cab between it and the rear bulkhead ? Mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzar Posted December 31, 2019 Author Share Posted December 31, 2019 No closing panel on the LWB, but I could use a drain hole or something? Or in near the cappings? Great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallfry Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 In one of the door corners ? The seals are in strips so one could make a gap ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I get a chance (!) I'll get clever. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallfry Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Or between the windscreen frame and roof ? Make good with some mastic fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miketomcat Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Fit a cable gland any where that works for you. Between capping and truck cab back. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyn668 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Or just slam it in the door. I had mine like that for years. If you put it nearish to the bottom you won’t notice any new leaks It worked fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
