Routing the Cable
Figure 6 illustrates a typical method of
routing the antenna cable.
Avoid kinking, crimping, twisting, or
chafing the cable. If the cable comes
into contact with a rough metal open-
ing, use a rubber grommet to prevent
damage.
For antennas mounted at the front or
middle of the roof, route the cable
along the door jamb and into the vehi-
cle. (See figure 6.) In some vehicles,
you may route the cable through the
same grommet that carries power
window and power lock wires.
