Cobra 29 LX on a Arizona Rocky Road mount. Currently running a hardtop so two 3/8" holes drilled to the roll bar. If your running a soft top you use the existing holes for the hard top aligning pins. No rattles when mic cord hangs freely, and you can still get to the Freedom Top latches. I was thinking of making the mount but got lazy. Besides, the purchase supports a fellow jeepers small business.

Well, I went through all the pages and I can't believe no one has mounted their CB where I have mounted mine...unless I missed something. It's out of the way, easy to hide wires/cables, the internal mic points right up to your ear so you can hear it well. Only downside is that it's behind ya and you have to look down and away from the road to change channels but I keep mine on scan or 1 channel for my jeep club. This is a temporary set up until I drill some holes or make it more solid somehow. If I hit a nice bump, it'll pop off the tabs. here are some pics.....







From where I sit....

Default My DIY Temporary Mount....

Until I decide where I want to permanent install my radio this is what I've done. It's kind of hard to see in the picture, but I have chained two zip ties together. One is attached to the CB mount and the other is around my 4WD shifter.

I don't have a pic right now but I made a custom mount above my mirror that is supported by the loop hole above the wind shield. I was wondering if anyone had made a locking/more secure adaptation to that. I love having my cb there but a thief could have it in a matter of minutes. Any ideas?
