#10 cabling from battery protected with a 30A fuse in a weatherproof connector. A real weatherproof connector- not one with just a plastic cap.

Use a console of your choice.

This vehicle has two batteries and I guess my question includes ;
Is there any concerns drilling in the floor Hump for the radio console (like vents or extra wiring harness??? I have completed a Dodge Durango & several Ford P71 (CVs) but this is my first diesel vehicle .
thanks for your time
