 (1) Brackets added to hold antenna out away from cab. (2) Sitting on the Floor inside is the Tower of Power with my XM Radio, Icom 706MKIIG, Ameritron ALS500M Amp and my Tarheel Digital Antenna Controller. I'm am now running 2-Power Leads (#10 wire) 8ft. long each directly from the battery to where my equipment is plugged in on the back side of the tower in the right picture.  (3) I have (1)-24 terminal Grounding Strip from a circuit breaker box on each side on back of tower, one for Hot from the Battery and one for Ground.

I hope these pictures might help you with your installation.
