I cannot find the preinstalled cb wiring on my 2004 Vectra. The antenna is on the roof but I cannot locate the antenna wire nor the power leads under the dash. Does anyone know where they might be hiding?

I found mine hanging down under the dash in a plastic bag....wiring from the roof antenna, and the power leads....Open your dash up...its there on the left side

Mine was on the left side, bundled in a plastic bag. The majority of the antenna wire was jammed in the metal support post between the windshield and the window. It was a search to find as stated above.

Mine was on the left side under the dash in a plastic bag too! Seems like Winnie does one thing consistently.

Mine was behind the foot rest on the left side down at the floor level. WE had to hunt for it but it is there.

Ditto to what others have said....they're wrapped in a plastic bag and stuffed way up on the drivers side of the firewall...

Just did 1370 miles from Virginia to Forest City, Iowa anad had the CB on intermittently....Might not even turn it on for the return tri unless in a traffic situation where it'd be nice to know what the delay was.

If anything,over the years the CB has gotten worse as far as vulgarity and lewd/rudeness....

Maybe my CB is hard of hearing but I don't hear to many lewd conversations on my rig. Occasionally someone will say something off color but that is the exception not the rule.. What I do find is not many MOHO's are listening. It is good for traffic situations...Good Miles

On the gassers Winnebago has been jamming the wiring behind the fuse block under the dash on the left side. Very hard to see but it's there in a plastic bag.
