I did a write up on this in the beginning but I can't find it. No one had balls enough to drill through the roof, but I have like a 1 to 1 SWR on my Radio. Antennas are best on top. Magnet mounts are good, Bolted is better. I first had the small remote mounted Radio but removed the console and added a full size radio in there with some major trimming.
I love it! But It's not for the weak. Picture later, got to take one.
Oh boy! Yes that Mic is for my Pa system before anyone asks, and the little Machine is a siren, animal noise maker. On to the CB.
I had to take the console out, it tapers down so the radio would not sit in far enough to close the lid. So I cut it to fit. The bolts that normally hold the CB in a mount still go in from the sides. However, in order to remove the CB you have to also remove the console. Anti theft for sure. I used a elbow at the ant at the bottom. (Low clearance) anyhow, I have toys in this radio, Dogfight, Turbo echo - reverb, Roger beep, on and on. Typical Truckers radio. Like I said, not an install for the weak or meek.
The Small one worked fine, but I just could not stand it since I am a big radio type of guy. It was a PITA install but what I wanted. Can be done.
