That's a good idea for placement. Did you just screw the bracket into the floor?

I may just have to change mine to that set-up, my current one makes my cupholders even more useless than they were to start with...





Nice one...

That looks good too. You don't find it too hard to use with the knobs and display pointed up like that?

It isn't that bad. I've learned to memorize where things are on it...so I can change the settings by feel while driving. Let me tell you, I've never heard a louder radio w/o an external than mine. I love the location. Plus, I've got a cell phone mount near my gauges, so when i'm wheeling, I put the mic there so it doesn't throw the mic out of the holder on the radio, and it doesn't hit the passenger.

I did my CB setup this week too. I use an ancient Rotel rig attached to the centre console. It's hard to find somewhere to mount it to because it's so damn big.

It does the job though.

Everyone has the position they like best, the overhead is a good choice but the between the seats is done well enough.

My new one has to be mounted between the seats same as KTMracing, it is too big to go overhead so this setup lets me know what it will look like, thanks.

Over there it's downright........required.
Haha yes. It sure is.

I usually drive a LHD and it's all fun and games until you need to pass a parked van.
