Just installed a Tuffy Locking Box and mounted my Cobra inside - perfect fit and plenty of security when the top is off.

Working on optimizing my setup on a new JK-E dock in my 2011. Where would I find that extension arm that you have the mic holders mounted to? Did it come with a mic holder?

ORW carries it. Does not come with a mic holder though. But it's awesome!!

For those that put the cb up by the rear view mirror how did you run the power to the cb? Mine has a plug to go to the cigarette plug but don't know how long it is. Just looking for ideas if it is not long enough.

I ran it behind the plastic down the passenger "A" pillar through the firewall, the coax runs along the passenger side to the antenna.

On the antenna mount did you have to ground it somewhere? Looks like its just mounted to the plastic. Does the standing wave check out alright?

Mounted mine so that the radio doesn't interfere with ANYONE's knee room, line of vision, or dash controls....yet it's still easily accessible and the wiring can't be seen anywhere.
