Thread: GME TX3340 install.

Morning all,
Thought i would do a quick photo shoot fit for the UHF i fitted this morning.

These instructions are for the Discovery 4 (any model).

So here goes,
I decided to fit a TX3340 as this gives the info & all controls on the Mic' head.
So there is no need for the head unit to be fitted anywhere that would get in the way. You will need to remove the centre console to gain power from the cig lighter plug..

Remove drink holder cup insert by lifting out, Grab a hold of the drink holder & lift upwards like in the photo.

This next panel just lifts out in an upward motion as you can see,



Undo the 2 screws & remove the gear knob by lifting upwards, be careful not to knock yourself in the chin as they can be stubborn.



Gently lift the centre console area by lifting from the rear end upwards, you will need to set the gear lever into neutral & then lift over the gear stick.
You dont have to remove the entire unit as mine just sat neatly leaning against the gear lever. I ran the power wire with the main loom & cable tied it with it, you can solder into the +ve & -ve wires from the power plug but i had a few connectors lying around so made a male/female adaptor.
There is a split in the carpet towards the rear of the centre console, so i ran the cable in that & hid it under the carpet so you cant see it.
As you can see the clips that hold the unit are the yellow ones on the side, this gives an idea of where they are & how many.



I mounted the main unit under the drivers seat, for 2 reasons.
1. there is a big amplifier under there with a nice steel cage & you can use this to mount the unit on. I made a steel plate for the unit to sit on then spaced the bolts as the cage has a lip.

2. It was easy to just run the Mic' cord to it without having to use the extended piece that would of been too long. Also the speaker faces upwards to me too. (we will see if the speaker is good enough?, its ok in the garage when its quiet, but out on the tracks will be different).



THis is what you end up with in the final shot, Just a nice simple place for the Mic' to sit. Not in the way anywhere & easy to use when i need it.

You can also see the Electric trailer brakes in the top r/h side, i fitted a RedArc remote head unit. See install at end of post

I have a bracket to fit to the aerial which i am in the final process of finishing. I will do another shoot for this piece as i plan to fit this on the tail gate section.



Cheers all.

Hi Sniegy,
Great write up. However, it might be useful if you edited your first post to make it clear that it's for the D4.

Best Wishes,
Peter
