Mobile Cable Routing in Ford F Series Pickup

I can try to get pictures in a day or two, but for my single cab Ranger-clone, I have the mount centered on the roof.

For cable routing, I tucked the cable beind the back edge of the outer top door seal at the top corner of the passenger door, following along the outside of the inner seal down to the bottom of the door, then looping up and toward the back to cross the seal, to create a drip loop and discourage water intrusion.

I'll take a look at that. I wasn't sure if anyone ran the cable between the bed and cab, under the cab, and through the firewall. I would prefer to not cut off the factory BNC connector but if it came to that it's not the end of the world. Thanks and if you happen to think about it, some pictures would be nice.

Edit: Never mind. I finally figured it out
