    I have a PCI Race radio and the antenna for it on the roof. I have a CB radio and a 3' Firestick for it, and the red "antenna" is my flag whip when I'm in the desert.

    I went to "Youtube University" and watched a dude change the leds. I followed a couple links down a rabbit hole and ordered the leds to do mine in green.

    How do you like the reception with the fire stick? Contemplating the 2' one, just picked up a Bearcat CB, need to get the rest of the set up and figure out where I'm gonna put it.. Kinda like where you have yours, at least I think it's your CB, down in the foot well..

    I take it thats how ya did the center rear as well? I have no electrical skills, other then knowing what wires to cut to secure a car... on an auto extrication...

    The CB is the one in the foot well, and it's ok, but you have to get use to it being there cuz your leg is gonna rub on it. I had to move mine forward to allow the seat to move. As for the Firestick, I'm really up in the air cuz I don't really use it that much out here. For the wiring, there are several different threads on TW.

    And to be honest, the list goes on. All of these are in the Mods/Tutorials section. TWers are generally more than happy to help. I actually called a guy once from here and he walked me through it over the phone. Pretty sweet!

    Awesome, thank you
    Yes, the TW guys have saved me a few times now, and have helped me find some used stuff for cheaper. Hell they got me up and running on a spare hub bearing in a matter of 3 hours after it blew up on me.
