Well the first pic is the phone and the fatter looking part is what it clips on to for storage. I don't have it connected and it was taking up unnecessary room (don't worry I do want to put back in somewhere else just because it's cool as heck) and I took the phone mount off and used the bracket it screwed onto as the base for the cup holder. I just took the cup holder off of my bike. Sorry for the late reply but i don't have my jeep right now. It's currently in the shop because of a faulty cpi and the ecu is half dead

Maybe bluetooth for your phone, so you can answer calls with it, as well as choose CB channels with the keypad! Dude I envy the potential you have! Make sure to post it here hen you get around to it!

That's a good idea with the keypad for channel choosing!! I'll look into it and then I will! But that's more of a high tech programming mod rather than a homebrew mod XD but I'll see!

I have some experience with it if you need help. (Not an expert though). Might have to do it with a digital CB though. Still, perfectly possible

Well I can't even afford my refurbishing repairs as it is so I don't think a digital cb is something I an get just yet

Definitely possible. Just gotta do the research and the groundwork. Not going to be a simple mod though, that's for sure.

For both of you: I found out that the cable that has the two screws that go into a box under the rear seat fit an adapter I have and I will send pics later but I might be able to use that as the conversion cable to a more modern device.
