you'll have to run a cable down to the fuse box (a pair) or directly to the battery for a suitable feed. you should fit an inline fuse (if not already part of the cb).

You cant use the interia light feed as the earth is in door switch/elsewhere.

ps: make sure the cb is very secure as going over a big bump, could cause another bigger bump....... :(bigshock):

muddysteve:
i just scotch locked mine to the interior light feed  :shock:

worked a treat  :lol:
