Can't wait to see how you installed that CB on your center console...
That cobra CB would definitely match it... Hope everything goes well...

here is a rough shot of the cb mounted i think i am going to go around it with some of that foam tape to help with the gaps but if it does not look ok to me no big deal this was the console in the worse shape any way
