I now have the behind the seat Speakers in the corners

new speakers ,, they are are all wired up to the radio that I had a shop hook up for me,, when doing a different job on my truck.. NOW , I need the wires from an inside the cab antenna to be hooked up to the radio .. back in the day when I was thinner I"d lay down in front of the seat and get things done uner the dash ... You know how life changes that dont ya ? Is it hard to take the clips loose for the dash cover to get this done? Will this work ? Or is there another way ?

Well do you have the antenna in the windshield? If the if the little windshield ant adapter in place on the windshield, then you will only have to plug in the single black cable for the antenna looks like an RCA plug. The female to the windshield adapter and male to the back of the radio it about 3' extension cable. if you do not have one or the other you can find them at LMC or Classic parts of America.
you can remove the upper part of the dash to install the Adapter 1-1/2"-2" a snap button side to the windshield male RCA to the ant extension cable. Take out the radio let take the face bezel off route ant wires throw the dash reinstall the face bezel radio opening plug-in ant pop radio back in.
