Did those of you who have one mount the CB in your truck? I have a manual and was thinking of bolting it directly behind the stick but wanted to hear other options for this if there are some.


Edited to add that I am stupid, please move this one to the Other forum for me.

 

I bought one of those plastic center consoles that you use to be able to store audio tapes in. I mounted my cb to it. You can not use the original cup holders but the center console has its own cup holders so we use them. I put a piece of rubber down to protect the carpet. I have the automatic with the switch on the dash to go into 4 wheel drive. Not sure if if will fit any other way. This way I can install and remove it when I go on trips. I don't care to have it when I driving around home.

 

Here's what I used to have...BGBW WUNDER MOUNT

I liked it, but it won't fit with my sub box. I had a Cobra 29 mounted on it for size comparisons

If it looks like something you'd like, PM for a chance to try before you buy

Whatcha think about this?

 

I was looking at that hole thinking if I found a smaller CB it would fit right there, I guess I was right!

 

I like the looks of that one, very clean!

 

i have the same CB mounted where your mic is hanging...im gonna move mine into that hole so it doesnt hit my leg anymore.

how did ya mount it, self tapping screws or did ya take the trim and stuff out to use a nut and bolt

 

I took the trim out. I used nuts and bolts. I used a couple of 3'in bolts, 6 nuts, a couple flat washers, lock washers and 4 body washers.

 

That's why I have one! My truck is cluttered enough as it is, I don't need more help

Take a look in my gallery...The mount I have is the hump mount with external speaker..

 

I made my own bracket to hold a scanner or CB against the front of the middle seat.

its not done yet but i still have to cover it in grey leather...most likely next yr

 

DieselDude,That is a nice clean setup you have there very slick.I was just about to make a topic on this cause I was looking at ways to mount one.I am prolly gonna go with the bracket the flips under the seat and out of the way,looks very clean.And plus since I am low on space with the 6 speed,but it might work out a little better once i put the short shifter kit on.

 

Here is mine

CB1

CB2

 

I have a manual too and fabbed up a bracket that mounts the CB between the shifter and the seat.
