Add a switch here. Can't be any more of a perfect fit than this.
It's only a few Ma., but when you're shutting down equipment in Boondock mode, every little bit helps.

That's a great idea. Beats having four radios laying around

Alternatively, you can ulnpug its power supply. On my Vectra, it's in the bay in front of the right rear wheel - up high.

The only thing I see in the bay in front of the right rear wheel in my Vectra is the WeatherPro awning controller and a duplex 110V outlet.

Hmmm. Mine has both the Weather Pro controller, and the "wall wart" (power supply) for the radios. (Plugged into said 110v outlet.)

That's odd--does that mean that your radio docking station is only powered when you have 110V available (shore power, generator, or inverter)? Mine seems to be wired directly into a 12V supply, since it's on whenever the house batteries are on. There is a red and a black 12V lead coming out of the back of the docking station, but I haven't yet been able to find this in the coach wiring diagrams to figure out where those leads go.

This one is plugged directly into the house battery and you cannot get at the power short of pulling it out of the front console.
