Where did you mount your CB radio?
I'm trying to decide where to mount my CB radio. There are a couple of location I'm considering (in ashtray, passengers side of center console, inside the center console) but I wanted to hear from you guys and hopefully see some pictures of your set up.

Sorry, I had to zoom in so its not a great pic, but you can see the CB. Seems to work just fine for me right there.

I have seen a lot of guys do it that way, and I have been leaning toward doing that my self but it kinda limits you to a compact system.
Do you know of anyone mounting a CB inside the center console?

I plan on running a CB below a single DIN deck. I saw a model with a forward speaker on it that would fit awesome on someone's pics. I have to keep my ash tray for all the money I keep finding in this 4R I got.

There is pic of the actual mount
your purchase one here https://www.gijoesradioelectronics.c...idproduct=1259
You can get various heights if u want but I went with the 6'' seem to get the job done 
I am running a Cobra 29 nw tuned to 40 watts w/ a wilson 1000 gets the job done for me and the mount makes thing flexible and is a breeze to install

I like the idea of the smaller ones cause they are less intrusive but still function well enough to get the job done. Is there any opposition to the smaller CB radio sets verses the midsized or full sized?
