Well I got it to work, rather simple, hence why I'm posting as god knows what ticking time bomb I've created.......!
I found a bolt that bolted into the metal in behind the dash, the body of the vehicle, and loosened it off and put black wire to that and tightened, then got decent thick red wire from the guy at Jay cars, crimped that to the red wire from the radio (and yes it had a fuse attached) and fed it through a grommet In the firewall and to the battery, tested and it worked! Surely it couldn't have been that simple? Even put the normal truck radio on and tested and there was no noticeable static, mind you I did test with a crapy old cheap hand radio set, but it sent and received transmission!
I'm loving this tinkering so far.......
