Rob,
I spent about 2 hours installing 2 of these snap rings. I heard u can buy cheap snap ring pliers at harbor freight that will get the job done.
I ended up using a long round file to help push one side of the ring and then I used a socket on the end of a long extension to push on the other side of the ring. Those along with a lot of frustration, talking to myself and cussing that got them on.

Okay, so how do you install the snap ring on the 90 degree antenna cable connector at the back of the radio trays?  I'm told the SRT-2 is the tool to use, but $140 for something I'll use for 10 minutes?
 
 Any other ideas, gents?
