This probably sounds like an odd addition to a Protege, but being a Jeep enthusiast, I have a CB in my Jeep for offroading and I love it on the highway. Truckers are great entertainment and they always know exactly where the cops are on the highway.
With that said, I'm going to install a CB in my Protege. Something relatively basic, but with weather channels and probably a PA switch. The PA in my Jeep is way too much fun
Where is a good place to mount the CB? I thought I might try to jury rig something below the stereo in the storage compartment there. Another option is to drill into the side of the center console near the passenger foot area and mount the CB vertically there.
How about a mounting point for then antenna? Will one of those "under-the-hood" mounts work on the trunk of the Protege? I'm guessing no because of the gasketing. Maybe I could mount it under the hood like I see on pickup trucks. (Similar to this http://www.wavehunter.com/brack2.jpg )
Any ideas? Has anyone here installed a CB in their Protege?
