lets see where you put ur cb radio?


is this clean enough? if you take your time and measure twice, cut once, it can be made to look like it belongs there.

that's fine. looks great.
but others don't take that much time into it. for them it may not matter. their rig, their choice.


AND---- that radio is a great choice for that since it has a front facing speaker built in.
 
thanks. i thought the same about the radio with the speaker in the front but i had removed the carpet and had the floor Line-X'd so it's loud at highway speed so i added an external speaker.

The speaker on the bottom of my dash is hooked to both my cb and 2 meter. Which solved my speaker trouble with only 1 speaker! Instead of having 2 hanging around

Mic is on a gear keeper hanging on the mirror. Linear is under the driver seat. External speaker is behind the arm rest in the middle of the two seats.

1986 Ranger XLT 2.9L V6. Running a Cobra 25WX/ST. Mounting bracket simply screwed in underneath the dash. Mic hook mounts to the side of the radio and mic cord loops around gear shift. Doesn't interfere with gear shifting at all. First pic is with gear shift in Reverse. Second two is with gear shift in 1st.

Ranger is mounted in the cealing like John's, and the Ex is on the floor with an external speaker on the ground too pointed towards me... To bad neither of them work :( <- Starting a thread on this right now....

Antenna mounted by a hood-bracket. About $10 for the bracket.

CB mounted under the ash tray:

I'm going to get another one soon for the new ranger. I'm wondering if the space between the visors will hold a CB on my ceiling?
 
i'm switching to a cobra 75 setup... so only that little hidden box has to be mounted, which will be mounted under the seat. all the controls are in the mic

Great to see someone else running a "real" radio
