Where to mount cb in toyota truck

I've got a 92 Toyota SR5 Xtra cab 4x4 that I want to mount my Cobra 148GTL cb in. Problem is where to mount it. Where have members mounted there cb's in trucks? Please give me some good ideas.

Thanks,
Doug

I have mine mounted in the extra 1 din slot below my CD player. Works good. I don't how big your CB is. I think it may be to big to mount there.

Well, have fun all.

Same with 2nd gen Runners.

I have all my inside trim peices tore apart right now and hope to have my CB installed tomorrow. I'm taking lots of pics and will post them up in a few days. Heres the thread where i got the idea from: https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f97/cb-install-finished-pics-44177/

I have a huge CB, so I had to mount mine on the glove box door.
CB installation

If I keep this rig next year, I may end up getting a roof console to put it in like in the pic on my page.

i 'mounted' mine between the passenger seat and ctr console, it drops down out of site when not in use. i made an angled holder out of 3/4 plywood for the radio to rest in and have the controls and speaker above the edge of the seat for ease of use. the mic and support are hidden under the drivers seat and the antenna is a quick release k40 that i keep in the back. takes less than 30 secs to set up or take down.

I have my CB (Uniden PC55, basically the same as the current 520 Pro XL) in the ashtray slot:
