2007 Toyota F.J. Cruiser Install

Post by WCHija »

I just bought a 2007 Toyota F.J. Cruiser. I am hoping to install my highpower XTL5K/O3 and an AVA. Anyone have any experience with these?

No roof rack, so radiation patterns should be excellent.

Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.

I do plan to have a local radio shop install the antennas.

Doc at Spring tail has some good stuff, my install is nearly done. I plan to post my install pics in a week or two when I get it wrapped up, and when I figure out how to post pictures.
