Easy to Install!
Review by SilverSport -
I purchased the Firestik coax with the removeable PL-259 connector. It made routing the cable through the tailgate and along the roll bar of my Jeep. Once you get the cable to the radio, simply screw the connector back on. (Posted on May 1, 2013)Overall Rating

Quality product, just a little short for my installation.
Review by Jake Blue -
This product came highly recommended and installed along with the Firestik antenna and accessories without any problems whatsoever. Having never installed a CB and antenna before, I did my homework first and this site is a wealth of helpful information. I highly recommend RCR to anyone! My only word of warning is to make sure you measure before you start to ensure you get a long enough cable. 18-feet seems to be standard length and I estimated it would be enough but once I got into the installation with all the curves and such it ended up being about two feet too short. I had to reroute it three times before I found the diagonal route across the bed which was my only choice in order to reach. Just a word of warning for 4-door Jeeps or similar.

Really happy with this!
Review by DigitaLbraVo -
Other than a minor mishap at the shop that installed the antenna (the tech didn't properly follow the directions and I ended up with all the washers on the bottom and a short-to-ground at the antenna), once I realized what was going on a remedied it and gave everything a firm twist with a wrench.Overall Rating
It looks great! It was just along enough, maybe a foot or two of tucked away slack) going from under the radio to just behind the cab of my 2012 Tacoma double cab short-bed. I'm really happy with this purchase! (Posted on February 26, 2013)
