[Icom] Toyota firewall

[Chris BONDE]

I have a Camry as well.  It is a 2002 one.  The book said donot use a 
transmitter therein as it will affest the operation of the vehicle.  I have 
thought of having a 2m and a 70cm rig in it.

I plan on using the power plugs, ie, the extra cigarette lighter plugs to 
run it.  I would like to remove the ash tray and use that area to put the 
face plate in.  Has anyone tried this?

Also, how would an antenna as a look-a-like-cell antenna be set up just 
above the rear window?

To me the power is readily available with these power outlets.  It is the 
possiblity of over ridding the computer and setting up the antenna.
