It's a 18 WX-STII that glows with blue LED's and doesn't have a weather band circuit. Designed for the ricer crowd so they can have a CB that glows like their dash & motion neon crap.

Check out the 75 WXST if you want small. It's a remote little box and everything is in the handheld portion.

The SEARCH feature here is your friend.
In fact there are several current posts here in view for putting in a CB in your same style of dash.

https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f97/cb-install-finished-pics-44177/

And this is the same Uniden that you can mount under your radio in '89 to '95 trucks, and '90 to '95 4Runners.

This unit can also install under the ashtray as seen in the 2nd link above.

Hey thanks guys for the reply's. Yea i have actually read like every single thread in this category. I guess what I am mostly looking for now is a place online to buy a radio now. I have found a couple places like (The Quack Shack) and (WalcottCB). Ill try doing a search for places online to buy a radio from, but if anybody gets to my thread sooner, id love to hear of some places. Thanks again for the reply's.

My Situation....

Okay, well as I was saying before, im looking for something the size of the RadioShack one that I had previosly. Because I have my GPS sitting right there, I need something close to that size. Let me know of any ideas now that I have some pics.

Here are some pictures of my current setup as of now. I plan on taking this CB out because its crap and buying a new one.





Thanks for the reply's.

Hey guys-
I just installed this CB yesterday and it turns out i bought the wrong Coax, so im waiting to receive my new one in a couple days hopefully. The CB turned on is SOOOO kickass. I know people were thinkin' how rice it is, but i like it and thats all that matters. I will hopefully be able to post some pics up tomorrow or the next day.
