HAM and GMRS Radio Installs in 4th gen Tacoma -- Post Your Setups

[Pappy]

Finally got my HAM installed. Yaesu FTM-150. Head unit is mounted to an ICS dash mount. Main unit is mounted to the side of my GooseGear rear seat delete. I've already moved it once so the cords are long. I'll worry about that later. That microphone port socket for the center console looks like a nice solution. Right now my mic is plugged into the main unit behind the seat and the mic sits in the rear cup holder. Cord management is evolving.

I would use a Diamond mount for the mic that attaches to the passenger side grab handle, but it's getting used by my Garmin Overlander.

Radio is powered by a 50Ah Li battery mounted in the rear seat delete. Battery is charged by a Powerwerks 2A/4A/8A DC-DC charger off the engine.

Has anyone found a RJ45 mic plug like the one above that will ship to Canada?
The eBay product link can’t ship to Canada. I took an gamble ordering a similar one from AliExpress but it didn’t fit.

Here’s a probably dumb question. Anyone know the size of the nuts on the battery? I’m wanting to add lock washers and wing nuts to secure my power, but I haven’t a clue what size they are.
