before drilling the hole. Set up the system by routing the
cable through an open door or window, completing the setup
instructions, verifying the system works as desired, and then
drilling the hole.

Before attaching the antenna, clean the area around the
mount. Apply a thin layer of silicone grease to the threads,
only, of the NMO mount and to the o-ring on the antenna.
DO NOT apply to the antenna pin contact surface. Screw the
antenna onto the NMO mount and hand tighten into place.

Before connecting the power supply, disconnect the vehicle battery
leads to avoid any electrical shocks during installation.
Locate a place where cables are already running through the firewall
(rear wall of engine bay) to the inside of the cabin.
Locate the same firewall hole from step 2 in the inside of the vehicle
cabin.
Route the power cables of the power supply from the inside of the
vehicle cabin out through firewall hole from steps 2 & 3.
Note: The cables must be routed inside to outside since the power
supply brick won’t fit through the firewall holes. The power supply
brick should remain inside the vehicle cabin.
Connect the positive lead of the power supply (lead with red tape)
to the disconnected positive (+) lead of the battery (not the positive
terminal on the battery itself).
Connect the negative lead of the power supply (lead without tape)
to the disconnected negative (-) lead of the battery (not the negative
terminal on the battery itself).
Connect the positive (+) lead back to the vehicle battery.
Connect the negative (-) lead back to the vehicle battery.
Use steps below as a draft/template of the general install of
the power supply.

NOTE: Having the power supply directly connected to the battery may
drain the battery’s life. Please review the vehicle’s owner’s manual for more
information. Adding a “fuse tap” may be another solution. A “fuse tap” is an
electrical part that functions as a power splitter and is meant to be installed
in the car’s fuse box, making the amp shut o when the vehicle’s ignition
switch is turned o.
