LC200 - Fitting a UHF Radio

[Wazz]

Hi

I have a 2015 diesel LC200 and want to fit a UHF radio. Some say velcro it to the floor under the seat, others say zip tie it to 'something' under the dash.  Any advice please?  And should the unit be wired direct to the battery or through the ignition?

Thanks

Hi Warren,

I put mine in a new overhead console.  Looks (I think) neat and tidy, out of way and the speaker is right next to my ear (a good thing, for aging blokes like me).

However, the newer units these days are much smaller and can probably be hidden out of the way.  Still leaves the question of where to put the speaker.

Thanks Geoff. The unit I am looking at is the new GME TX3550s, the controls/display and speaker are in the mic. So the actual unit can be hidden away.  I will look into the overhead consoles.
