    St Ives NSW .....I know how to connect it all up as long as I can get the power wire and the antenna coaxial through the fire wall to the drivers footwell area ....as that is where I want to locate my radio ......I have installed same radio in a discovery and it worked a treat..........A hard to locate Gromit was the only challenge there once overcome rest was easy .................so how to get through the fire wall in a defender on the drivers side is the thing ...................

    Hi , just to add to all the info you've had . I cut the little rubber tits off the fire wall grommets with a really sharp blade , then used a long piece of wire , I was surprised how easy I found it on both sides of the fire wall inside the cab . I just used tape to the wire and pulled then through , It was a lot easier than I was expecting !!.. Jim ..

    Ok chaps ....with your great help I'm almost there ......got the coaxial antenna cable through to where I need it.....great ......have decided that it makes great sense to bring the power from the switch panel .....which I gently removed .....
    So far so good .......I can see the clock connection ..... 3 wires ...red. Black and purple ......my radio only has red and black ......

    Not sure how to connect to the clock .....looks to have a little black plug thing and a cable tie on it ........before I break anything ......do I just cut the cable tie and remove the clock "plug " ...............then how do I wire up to the clock ......

    Hope I don't need to solder as its a bit tricky with the gear leaver holding me from pulling the switch box fully out ..........

    I avoided all that and kept my power feeds inside the vehicle, running from under the passenger seat up to the cubby and along the transmission tunnel under the mats to several locations. Collected several wires and the UHF antenna together in one protective sheath. Saved a lot of mucking about.

    You could get power from the clock too.
    PM sent if you want to ring to talk it over before you attack your pride and joy.
    Thanks ....tried to call but went to answer phone ..... Well on the way now ....can get the switch panel out and see the clock wires going in to the clock


    .......so how do I connect to this ....I read in another tread that there are "protected female sockets " on the back of the clock .......not sure what these are ......there looks to be a cable tie on the connection ....but I have not disturbed any thing until I know what I'm doing ....I want to connect the red and black ( dual cable ) from my radio to a source of continuous power .....but not sure how to do the connection .....and before I start messing with the clock wires I need to know How I connect them back again with my radio wires .......so any guidance appreciated
