I didn't want to bother my passengers by having a CB by their legs/feet, and I can't mount mine in between the sunvisors since I have a Limited with the overhead console, so I simply used a GoPro suction cup mount and adheasive mount on the CB and put it on the passenger side of the windshield, just above the dash. Easily removes in seconds and it's powered with a cigarette lighter plug so I can completely remove it without any drill holes and reinstall in seconds as well. Doesn't block vision out of the windshield much at all.

And I have a Redneck 102" whip off my rear swing out carrier

No Velcro...

I'm kind of OCD with the interior of my vehicles, and I simply cannot stand something that looks like an afterthought. Having a CB hanging off the side of the console or stuck up on the dash just isn't for me. I've spent waaaaay too much time trying to come up with clean looking installations for several vehicles over the years - probably could have taken up a foreign language or something with all that wasted time

I am kinda the same way. I struggled with my ham radio, but ended up putting on the dash....however, the bracket is hidden UNDER the dash cap and only the sides stick up through the dash (I cut slits with a dremel). A compromise because I realized I too have to keep the foot well open for both passengers and camera gear (when working/chasing solo).
