I would have installed it there but I have the CD player there now and gauges where the CD player used to be. In my 97' Rodeo I had the CB mounted in the cubby hole down at the bottom and I loved it there, and had the antenna mounted on the spare tire rack. I thought about mounting it on the rack when it gets here but I think if I move it I will probably mount it on the rear of the truck inside the door channel. I'll need to get a longer coax but that's not a big deal.
