JoeDirt Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I need a spot to mount a cb, that's not in the dash. Also, where is the best place to put an antenna? Pictures please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karmann Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I don't have a CB but am looking into one at the moment. As far as the mount, you could put it under your seat, in the cubbie on the left hand side of the steering column, or perhaps in the center console. For antennas, it seems like the best reception comes when it's mounted on the roof. Wilson makes a high quality magnetic unit, which is apparently worth the little bit of extra dough. Hope it helps!

JoeDirt Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 I was hoping to find one less than and inch and a half thick so I could fit it in the driver door Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fleurys Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 My cb is the Cobra 75WXST, everything is in the handle with a very small unit that I put next to shifter under the plastic trim... Antenna cable is passed from inside , in the hood area, comes out in the the front grill and I made an adapter for my bull bar... I think this is the smalled foot print for a cb... very worth it if you ask me.. S. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albino Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I took down my drivers side sun visor and mounted the cb up there. It is a good location because I can see it and access all of the controls easily. I did have to be careful when mounting it to make sure my head could never hit it. That might just be a problem for me though since I am 6' 5". I made a small sun visor to fold down beside the cb to replace the one I took down. I'll try and take some pictures of it if I can remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebelord Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Those All-in-one Cobra's work pretty good. Lots of my Heep buddies have them down here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle94 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) I put mine next to the shifter, passenger side left leg angled to the drivers view. Looks pretty clean. I'd post but I'm on my phone. So maybe tomorrow Oh and my cb antenna is drilled and mounted into my rear bumper drivers side. Edited March 13, 2014 by Kyle94 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
