    I was thinking of mounting it on top of the center of the dash, and I would prefer to actually wire it into the truck’s harness and properly fuse it in the fuse panel. Anyone installed a cb radio in a 3rd gen yet? I’d appreciate any advice or thoughts or tips on this.

    Cool stuff
    There are many factors to consider like antenna placement and radio choice. You will 100% need to wire directly to the battery and need to plan your wire cable routing.
