I have a mount similar to this one for a small Uniden CB...think it's the 510XL. It works well. Does not get in the passengers way, easy to get to, uses the existing bolts on the console.

I've mounted a full size Cobra 29 above the rear view mirror in the past. Bought a Uniden 980 that I plan to put in the dash at some point.

ok I have decided im going overhead mounted, but now idk what else I need, I know next to nothing about this stuff, my plan is to mount the antenna to my river city offroad tramp stamp, I don't know how long of an a coax cable I need, do I need the spring? what size antenna? I was thinking uniden bearcat 980ssb based off of another thread here, any other recommendations?

I would absolutely go with this mount:
Accessories unlimited AUJ1 FENDER MOUNT FOR 2007-UP JEEP WRANGLERS
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IHMZT1S..._MlLNvbP7GGS2J
Forget the spring. And forget the spare tire mount. Get a firestik firefly 4 footer tuneable tip. Route the coax through the hole the clutch would use in the firewall assuming you have an automatic.

I have mine mounted with this overhead bracket from Rugged Ridge. I have a full size cobra 29 mounted on it with no problem.
