[Scan-DC] mounting a radio

[mike agner]

I recently got a 2006 Honda Civic Hybrid to replace the old Toyota which 
was beginning to fall apart (after 195000 miles I'm not complaining), 
however this leaves me a problem - I have a Icom IC-207 dual bander 
(2m//440) with the remote head and antenna that needs to go into the 
car. I also have a trunk mount that was used by my Austin Spectra for 
the scanner (a 396). I rescued all the hardware except the alternator 
whine filter, so I have the control and battery cable (in fact, I have 
somewhere in my junkbox a replacement battery cable...), mounting 
bracket and all the screws (I think...)

That's something that's way the heck out of my league (like Dirty Harry 
once said, 'A man's got to know his limitations', hi), so I'm looking 
for some recommendations from folks that have had such work done on 
their Civics. I'm also looking for ideas as to where to mount - 
fortunately the remote head is quite small. Unlike the Camry, there's no 
passthru between the trunk and the passenger compartment.

If you prefer, you can email me direct at ka3jjz1 (at) verizon (dot) net
