I just got myself a cb radio! Now I need to find a spot where to mount it at? Show me some pics of what you got!! Need some ideas

 

I just installed mine...well, mostly. It's in, but it is secured to the dash with cable ties temporarily. My long term plan is to complete the installation with a Rugged Ridge Dash Organizer. It has CB mounting features integrated into it. This way I figure I can remove the radio when the top is off and the CB is not in use, which is pretty often. Here's a pic from the Quadratec web site.



Here is what I did for the antenna. I bought the Firestik Firefly LG3-M2 antenna with side mount kit. For $50 you get a Firefly antenna (mine is 3 ft long, hence LG3) the side mount, and an 18 foot long cable. I mounted mine on the backside of the License plate mounting bracket. Pics of the kit and a paper template showing the location. are below.

Glad I could help. I'm loving mine where I have it. That antenna mount is da bomb too. Sweet, simple, no exposed cables. No grounding issues. Transmission is "crystal" clear (I threw that in there for you). You likey?

 

Exactly where I plan to put mine................whenever I finally get my JK that is.

 

I used a cell phone bracket to mount my CB:
