Grounding the Dice HD Antenna
 

Where can i ground the HD antenna? I was looking at ncx's pics and I have routed the antenna along the A-pillar to the sunvisor. I unscrewed the sunvisor, but I still don't know where to attach that silver piece...and for that matter...how do you attach that silve piece?

Thanks :thumbup:

I use the a-pillar retaining screw. This will give a very good ground. Alternative point would be the sun visor screw.

Yep, pillar screw or visor screw will be a fine ground. I used the visor screw and it was very easy. I routed the ground wire to the visor mounting location, scratched up the screw hole so I saw shiny bare metal, and tightened the visor screw down on to the metal strap. Worked great.

ohh...

THANKS!

do i just tie the silver thing?

You mean the ground strap? Tie around the screw? Yes that would work but I just wrapped the strap up under the screw at kind of a u-shape to get as much metal-to-metal contact as I could, then tightened it down firmly.

This will work. :)
