I wanted to get some ideas from you guys who have already mounted CB's. I have a Cobra 25 WX Classic and can't seem to find a place to mount it in my Taco. The only places I have thought of are either on the top of the dash or under the steering column. The only problem with under the steering column is when the mic is mounted to the side it hits my knee (I am 6'2"), plus the mic wire hangs down. And on top of the dash, well I don't want to screw holes in the top of my dash & I doubt 3M double sided tape would keep it there while I am wheeling off road. Anyone have any pictures or ideas? THANKS!!!

my buddy mounted his on the kick plate by his left foot. works well and doesnt seem to get in his way.

Do you have the 60/40 seats? I cut out the foam that is below the 60/40 armrest (on the back wall only) and put my full sized General Lee under the armrest. Removing the foam keep the radio flush with the front of the armrest and the back open to give the radio plenty of room to breath. The coax goes out the back, along the floor, and out the cab via the jump seat storage.

:2cents:

i believe there is a write up on this in the tech section maybe.(under cb mounting solutions).

 

[TEJASYOTA]

hk'dontoys is correct that the Tech Section has a write up & posting of different locations, but I would also try searching too.
CB + MOUNT = Search Button

BTW, I mounted my CB under my radio in the dash. It's not the full size Cobra 25x you mention, but the smaller Cobra 18wx

Good luck!

get a small enough CB to mount where the ash tray is...

i mounted mine on the dash, but like you i didnt want to screw holes in the dash. ....so i used hot glue. sounds stupid at first, and i didnt actually think it would hold up, but i have had it mounted on my dash for about 8 months, and it has been though plenty of rough terrain, and wheeling trips. it is still holding strong hand havent had any problems at all...
