    Here's my version of a hidden CB install. I am using a Midland 85-722 and storing it clipped to my salex organizer in the center console. I put a 12v marine grade socket and coax bulkhead fitting in the console also. So I can store it plugged in and ready to go, or completely remove it easily. I ran power from the last open spot on my Painless wiring fuse box behind the rear seat. Really liking how this turned out. Very functional and clean.

    CLEAN install, I'm looking to put a CB in my truck and already happen to have an 85-722, I am now very temped to copy your install. Thank you as well for the mention of the painless wiring fuse box behind the rear seat, is there already a good 12V source back there? what are you tapping in to?

    The aux fuse box is taking power from the battery up front. It's where I have all the wiring and fuses for all the lighting systems I am running/going to run.
