Question

I want to permanatly wire in my Snooper so I need to run some wires from behind the dash. Does anyone have any tips on getting bits off etc??

I want it to sit on the right hand side of the dial pod on a window mount and the various supply cables to come up in the join between the two parts of the dash around where the pillar trim meets it. I also need to run the cable for the GPS reciever from the rear parcel shelf to the same place (Thinking under the kick trim in the door openings.) and a cable for the RLD which is to be mounted behind the grill somewhere.

So as you can see I have my work cut out - all help appreciated.

Stu....

I can only help a little as I have run aerial cable from my DAB head unit to the aerial on the rear screen. The kick plates on the door sills come up quite easily witha bit of a tug IIRC, you can run cable in the channel beneath them, push the cable under the trim that runs down the B-pillar and continue with the rear kick plate. Then you can hold back the rear seat foam (or remove the seat back) and run up the trim for the rear wheel arch. long time since I did it but it's not difficult.
