2012 Tacoma Double Cab - cb options?

Looking for general guidance on the installation of a cb radio for my 2012 Tacoma Double Cab/TRD.

Antenna: Hood, roof or bed?
Radio: Underdash, dash (?), center box (hidden/small), behind center box, etc.?

I have read through some installations and think I can handle something that is not a "massive amounts" of disassembly/re-assembling like:

But I'd like to get general direction in terms of whether that a good option (center box/hidden with hood antenna), or others are better.

Uses: General travel / amusement, rural / hunting trips, northern PA (lots of snow, rough terrain).

Appreciate your experience and advice.

Excellent links. Thanks.

 

I bought a small Uniden 520 Pro and a good antenna kit (Firestick 3 foot) all from Right Channel Radios online. Visit their website and read up a bit before you buy. I found their info accurate and just ordered the stuff from thm instead of driving all over town. I mounted my antenna to a bracket on my bed rack so that the antena base is level with the roof and just behind the cab. The Uniden 520 Pro is small enough I put a "cigarette lighter plug" on it for the power cord and just set it on the seat when I use it. It works surprisingly well and I just stuff it in the center console when not in use. It works good as a trail radio so that several of us can keep in touch. But do know that CB is really only good for a couple miles. Within these limitations it has performed well.

One last comment: Before you start talking on the CB hook up a SWR Meter and check this critical parameter / tune the antenna. This check will tell you if you have a shorted or open antenna or coaxial cable whic hcan quickly ruin your transmitter. I just bought a $25 one at Radio Shack and I can test it before any critical use, or the SWR manual says "every few months".
