CB Radio questions

I am going to buy a CB radio and I was curious as to where you all were putting them. It is a full size CB and it looks like it might fit under the stereo in the DIN. But I think that would take some work. Where else do you guys have them.

Also what is a good antena? A K40 or just a 4 foot stick????

People easily put the Cobra 18WXSTII in the lower DIN slot under the Head unit.



I've personally liked the in the ashtray method, I mounted the 19DXIV.

Check my sigline for some more info... or whatever
