No problems at all. I found all the information i needed through various posts in the how to section.
I removed the plastic pillar cover and ran everything up the pillar and across the headliner. Firewall was not an issue either. There is a plastic plug just below and to the left of the main wiring rubber boot on the drivers side. I opted to drill a small whole, just big enough to fit the power wires, through the middle of the plug and resealed.
Antenna cable is routed down the drivers side interior mouldings and out the rear at the near the base of the tail light.
I received $300.00 towards a Yaesu Radio with (FT7900R with YSK-7800 Remote Mounting Kit.)
But seeing I have not purchased a radio yet...
I am going to look at Yaesu's newest offering.
The FTM350R.

I'm sure it is total over kill for an amateur radio operator like me..
But I am a Techno Weenie!
So what the heck Eh?
How is each end of the bracket you made fastened to the roof?
Just fyi. In some states you could be ticketed for obstructing the drivers view because of where you've mounted it.
Nice clean looking install though. One of the more professional looking jobs I've seen. Great job.
It is mounted to the Sun visor retainer clips. I removed the stock star screws and replaced with 1-1/2" #8 Phillips head stainless steel sheet metal screws and washers that can be bought at those national home improvement stores.
