Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Who wants some beer!
I need to have my new CB wired in and I am not very good with electrical. I'm sure its easy, but I am still hesitant because I don't know what I am doing.
I have it all mounted and the cable is ran, I just need it powered up.
You provide the electrical knowledge, and I will provide the beer!
Thanks

Are you looking for switched power or constant power?
Im thinking I want it to shut off when I turn the vehicle off, or I know I will forget about it and leave it on!

I think its worth mentioning to that I am pretty anal, and I dont want anything hacked up, and want a clean job.

Switched power sucks, but I should be able to do it if you have a voltmeter. I would recommend constant power. Sometimes you need comms when the rig is off, my 4runner was like that. It will take a long time for the CD to drain your battery.

It wouldn't be a hack job. Switched power would be a single wire under the dash spliced into a switched power cable. The trick is finding the line that is already switched...
Leif,
Give me a call if you cant find anybody by Friday, I'll swing by and hook it up.

Thanks for all the offers everyone!! I am gonna play around with it during the week and see if I can figure anything out. This is the vehicle that the wife drives, so I only have limited access to it during the week.
Thanks again everyone, and I will be in touch with someone I'm guessing!!
