Hello, I have a general question about getting through the firewall of a 2019 Ram 1500 Longhorn, Hemi, NO E-torque.
I have a HAM radio (as in a 2-way radio, CB, etc) that I want to wire directly to the battery. The radio needs 20 amps (it would work with 15 amps but I was told I should go more to be safe).
My previous truck was a 2015 Ram 1500 and running a wire directly from the battery into the cab of the truck was very easy, thanks to a hole that was preinstalled from the factory in the firewall, directly behind the battery. The hole was covered with a plastic cover that made it very easy to find, and the cover was easy to remove or drill through, allowing for the passage of a wire.
I have examined the firewall of the 2019 truck, trying to find a way to get a wire from the battery through the firewall but I have not had any success.
Does anyone know if the 2019 Ram has an easy way through the firewall like the previous models? O is there another alternative that would be just as effective?
My sincere appreciation and thanks in advance for everyone’s time in helping with this problem.
