I should have worded it differently. I see the bolts running through the mounting bracket. I should have said that it is not pleasing to the eye.

I figured out where i'm going to mount it. I recently put seats in my truck from a civic so no more bench. I'm going to mount the cb bracket to the floor in between the 2 seats against the back of the cab. I'll post pictures when i'm done. Thanks guys.

Good luck to you. Make sure to set your SWR once you get your antenna hooked up. Your 29 has an SWR meter on it so that is a good thing! The lower you can get your SWR's (standing wave ratio) the better your transmit & receive will be.

sorry for the o/t -

instead of modding a ham radio, wouldn't it be easier (and maybe more cost-effective and still just as illegal) to get an export radio instead?
