    I'm getting my cb radio and pa installed this weekend. I am at a lost for mounting spots that require no drilling in holes. I will drill holes if i have to but dont want to. I found a spot on the drivers side behind all the fuse boxes, thats where i might screw in the pa speaker. Any suggestions on spots please tell me

    I actually have a jeep now. Imagine that.
    I mounted mine I the side of one of the storage compartments in the bed. It's hidden. I did drill 4 holes in the box to do it though.

    It looked like there were some good places for it on there but it was easier for me to mount it in the back.
