2.2.2 Remote Mount with Trunnion
For a remote mount installation, the transceiver may be mounted anywhere in the vehicle, provided
that the installation location is safe, follows the cautions mentioned at the beginning of this section,
and is accessible for servicing/maintenance as well as cabling. A typical mounting location
recommended by Motorola is in the vehicle’s trunk. The trunnion provided may still be used to mount
the transceiver, and the mounting process is the same as for the dash mount installation
(Section 2.2.1 on page 2-21). However, for 100W radios you must follow the procedure detailed
below in Section 2.2.2.1. See Figure 2-10, Figure 2-11, Figure 2-13, or Figure 2-14 for a remote
installation.
Before installing any electrical equipment, check the vehicle manufacturer’s user
manual.
The installation of this device should be completed by an authorized servicer or
installer.
Before making any holes in the trunk for radio mounting, check the vehicle
manufacturer's user manual for restrictions (e.g. due to the gas tank location).
