Shortly after I bought the truck in 2019, about March 2020, I started having an audio system problem. The problem is: the audio system will have no volume control and turn on for a few seconds then turn and turn back on again.
I got it the dealer in May 2020 to which the dealer found code U0238...
I simply used the pressure vent on the passenger side rear wall behind the carpeting and ran it out to the antenna that way. My antenna is mounted to the rail of the retrax bed cover about 8 inches from the cab.
I will try to grab some pictures later.
good luck

This is a concern of mine as well but I use non-permanent Molle panels for just that reason. I use the 5.11 tactical hex grid seat system. It’s a soft molle panel that is removable. This also blends in nicely to my black interior if I remove the packs off the grid.
Nice call on the thread. Thank you all for your service. Army veteran, 8.5 years 1997-2006. Started as an 11M mech infantry before they made us all 11B infantry then reclassed to 98J electronic intelligence interceptor analyst. Wish I could have done a full 20 or more. Had some good times and...
Aside from some Molle panels inside the vehicle and some other storage stuff, I use a Plano XXL sportman cargo box that I use to carry seasonal and additional gear. Works great and it’s durable. I use a three space divider inside the box for added organization.

here’s my 2019 lariat fx4. I’ve added the euro roof rails, Yakima cross bars and basket, Ford Ranger Lifts hood bracket light mounts and Retrax bed cover. I’ve also painted the Ford emblems and skid plate/lower bumper valance. I have yet to install the level kit and I plan to ditch the plastic...
I used 3M Velcro strip. Holds up really well. Placed the hook side on the radio mounting bracket. It sticks really well the carpet under the seat. Have not had any issue with it.
I got the HAM radio mounted in the vehicle over the weekend. I still have some clean up on the wiring to do but I am on the air.
mounted main body under passenger seat
mounted antenna to rail of Retrax bed cover... need to update hardware.
mounted controller to center console just in front...
did he work at Hyundai Kia during the years, 2007-2009, quality engineering? I remember meeting someone by that name while working for Hyundai Kia at the quality center in California.
Phil, thank you. I am definitely running the wires up through the drivers side pass through. My biggest hold up is how and where to mount the main body of the HAM radio. Do you happen to have any pictures on how you mounted the radio under the seat?
thank you
Hello everyone,
I am hoping someone can help me out with some picture and advice. I have a yeasu FTM400XDR I want to install. I have read people putting the main body under the seat but I would like to see how. Also any other locations that people have installed their radios would be...
Awesome thank you. That’s just the right height for nothing loaded and I can move it up slightly to match the height of the Wildtrak roof rack bars when loaded.
Oh ? no problem. I think I’ve settled on this one versus the mid height non adjustable. So now the debate is, Yakima or Thule? I like the Yakima versatility and load capacity but the cost is higher.
