Thread: Pods - roof/dash

I have a good UHF radio, Icom 400 pro, which can be recalibrated for the new channel spacings. As such, I don't want to get rid of it.

Now, I want to fit it to my D4 but there's just no room anywhere to do it. I've been searching with my good friend, Google, but have not found a roof or dash pod/console that will do the job.

I contacted one of the local makers of the things, and they were happy to make one... but..... they would want my car for a few days to a week to do so, and I can't afford to be without the car, let alone have to drive to Sydney and back twice to get the thing.

So. Anybody been able to find one anywhere? I could just use the IC 41s as the radio I guess when the bullbar is fitted in a few weeks time... I'll just run the cable into the cabin, and using the appropriate adapter connect it to the hand held as needed. Being an Icom, it's a true 5w output handheld and I've had it run for 3 days on the high power setting before with battery life left.

Hmm.. talking myself out of getting a roor/dash pod here!

Wait for your bar work & put Haerial on that.
BTW I have a GME with the hidden radio & mike controls, very cool, unit sits under the steering column.
