Default CB mount

Where would be the ideal place to mount a cb in my 98 sport? I wanna a good clean look to it, like its supposed to be there. Ideas and pics appreciated.

There are several threads about cb mounting if you search. Here is my set up in my 90 XJ Laredo.

I mounted mine where the radio was. Not ideal for most people, but I dont need a radio in my Jeep.

This is probably the most popular placement.
I did my cb on the opposite side tucked up as c,ode as I could to the dash in my 97.

Thanks for the ideas, I like it mounted on the side of the console.

GoPro suction mount. I didn't want mine to be in the way of my passengers leg room and I have the overhead console, so in between the visors wasn't an option either. I like it, doesn't block vision either.

this is the one I have, that came with my GoPro Hero 2. Then I just used an adheasive mount and stuck it to the top of my CB, and mounted it to the windshield. IMO it's the cleanest way to mount it.

I've always liked it mounted under the passenger side dash, where I mounted mine:



It's a small unit, and I think it looks decent and stock-ish.

most of the radio exists in the hand piece with a small box that can be hidden away somewhere.

I put mine on the backside of the center console with the speaker facing out. Then ran the.wires into the console to hide them
