I had thought of drilling a small hole and placing a grommet in it behind
the cab, but that would require removing the bed....which I don't have the
room for in my driveway. (Neighbors wouldn't like it either.)

My Firestik-2 sits on the bed rail right behind the cab on a spring and
quick-connect. (That way I just turn it a 1/4 turn and remove it for
underground parking and car washes.) I ran my coax the same way you did. I
did, however, grind a small groove to relieve some of the "pinch" on the
cable when the window is closed. Then, ran it behind the backrest on the
rear seat and under the carpet up to the front under the dash by the center
console. God help me if I ever have to replace that cable....took me almost
a day to fish it through the center hump. Also had to remove the driver
seat to make it easy.

Later,

Bernd

Yup... Welp here is some Dak content... Right now I have a magentic mount up
on the cab roof. I have the coax running thru the sliding window in the
back. Do you know of any "openings" that I can route the coax through?? I
have a piece of foam sealing up the opening, and it looks chessy..
