Thread: CB Location in a D1

On my D1, I mounted it in the middle of the panel above the windscreen.

Same as p38arover, middle of plastic above rear vision mirror where the sunroof switches go.

I had a UHF with the detachable face. I mounted the body of the unit behind that panel below the steering wheel and the face was mounted in the centre console between the gearstick and the window controllers

do you have a one piece CB or two piece one?

mine was on the back of the (bigger) cubby box,,
(extension speaker required)
worked so well, did it in the D2.

Well its in a D2, but same dash.....I found right in the centre at the top was the most useful place. The bolts go through under the mat for the bracket, bracket comes "through" the mat and the power wire comes up through the radio vent and the antenna cable round right at the bottom of the windscreen as theres a big gap there.

Good thing is if and when you sell the truck, remove CB , fit a new dash mat, holes covered

I did mine in same position as Urban Panzer but I put it into a pod made by Department of the Interior. Had them mount the CB into the pod and mount the pod but installed cabling myself. Much neater look. Size of pod allows hand piece to be mounted to one side of CB and, in my case, I've installed a voltmeter with a two way switch so I can see main battery and second battery voltages. If anyone wants a photo, let me know, but you'll have to tell me how to put it into a message.

Mounted mine as per photo have now got a mount on side of unit for hand piece so its not held by the visor as in photo.
Cheers.

Old photo, but still there ... with ext speakers on top of dash for both radios
(can't believe how clean the car was back then)
