    Hey Guys I Tend To hang out with a Few Off Roaders now and then who all use CB Radios while they are out playing around and I do some traveling from time to time in small convoys with Family and Friends So I thought I might like to add a CB radio to my Truck. I really Like the Cobra 29 Models and Think If I was going to get on I would go with that How ever I'm having a hard time finding a place to mount it where it will look clean. My Question is where are you monting your CB's and are these perminent mounting locations or are they only Temporary? Please Show Pics.

    ya, thats a big radio.

    people have mounted them on the back outside of the center console, on the inside of the center console, on the right side front of the center console, in the glove box, in the dash (depending on the generation of your truck), under the seat, etc...

    i looked at the full-size CB radios, but ended up with a cobra 75 WX ST. all the circuitry, etc. is built into the speaker so it's quite compact -- there are tons of places it will fit. maybe something like that would work better? :notsure:
