Product overview
The APFOCBH2 is the RA Ranger equivalent of the APFOCBH1 which covers the earlier PX series Rangers and Everest. The APVCBB10 bonnet bracket is vehicle-specific to the RA Ranger's bonnet hinge geometry. The AP477H and ARJ45UNI components are the same as in the APFOCBH1.
The AP477H radio body mounts out of sight under the dash or seat while all controls and functions are operated from a remote speaker microphone with 7-colour backlit LCD display. The ARJ45UNI adapter screws into the vehicle's factory 12V cigarette lighter socket opening, replacing it with a clean RJ45 pass-through socket for the microphone cable.
The AP477H provides 5W output across all 80 UHF CB channels with CTCSS/DCS codes, duplex mode, channel scan, auto squelch, busy channel lockout, stereo mute output, and external speaker port. The 2-metre remote microphone extension cable is included. Compatible with 12V and 24V systems.
The CBSTHD1 is a 700mm ground-independent elevated feed fibreglass radome antenna with stainless steel spring base, 4.5m RG58 cable, and FME to PL259 adaptor for solder-free installation. The APVCBB10 mounts on the passenger side bonnet hinge using existing mounting points with no drilling required, and does not obstruct bonnet operation or window wipers.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the APFOCBH2 and the APFOCBH1? The APFOCBH1 suits the Ford Ranger PX, PX2, and PX3 (2012 to 2021) and Everest UA/UA II (2015 to 2022). The APFOCBH2 suits the Ford Ranger RA (2022-on) and uses the APVCBB10 bracket, which is specific to the RA Ranger's bonnet hinge geometry. The radio, antenna, and ARJ45UNI adapter are the same across both kits.
How does the ARJ45UNI adapter work in the RA Ranger? The ARJ45UNI screws into the factory 12V cigarette lighter socket opening in the RA Ranger, replacing the lighter socket with an RJ45 pass-through for the hideaway radio's microphone cable. This removes the cigarette lighter from that position. If the lighter socket is regularly used for other accessories, consider an alternative microphone routing location.
Where does the AP477H hideaway radio mount? The AP477H radio body mounts out of sight under the dashboard or seat. All controls are on the remote speaker microphone which mounts within reach of the driver.
Does the APVCBB10 bracket require drilling into the RA Ranger? No. The APVCBB10 uses existing mounting points on the passenger side bonnet hinge of the Ford Ranger RA (2022-on) with no drilling or permanent modifications required. It does not obstruct bonnet operation or window wipers.
What warranty does the APFOCBH2 kit carry? The AP477H radio carries a 5-year warranty. The CBSTHD1 antenna, APVCBB10 bracket, and ARJ45UNI adapter each carry a 1-year warranty.
