4th gen CB install

[zopperman]

I wired up my CB today with a PA and 3' firestik. After about 4 hours to install it, I accidentally keyed the mic while the antenna was in my trunk. I haven't SWR'd it yet so I don't know if i blew the finals and it's hard to hear anyone on CB because it's philly and I'm dead center of the city. Let's pray for the best when my SWR meter comes.

Anyway, here is the install. It's a midland compact unit. I had to cut out the bottom of the pocket thing and shove the CB in there and affix it with double stick interlocking tape (heavy duty velcro)

I installed the PA behind my grille. I'm thinking of making a mic stand out of some spare angle and double stick taping it in the space next to the CB and having the mic sit right above it.

yea, mine is mounted vertical on the drivers side (cobra 29) ( not much room for the seat to slide up, but Im tall so I usually have it almost all the way back) I have thought about either taking out the center consol and put an amp in there and I have also thought of mounting it in the trunk. All I need now is some $ and a free day to work on the install.
