ya i mounted mine to the rear door....

+ is that it looks good and is out of the way....
- is that you cant get it very tall because it will hit all types of things..
- i mounted mine to the cladding which eventually crunched in a little and now looks a little funny...

i plan on re-doing mine, maybe before moab if i get ambitious...without a roof rack the rear door is a great spot...easy to get to and mounts easily...

however, if you plan on doing a roof basket then i suggest to mount it up there with a swivel mount, thats what im changing mine to...something like this on the roof, that way you can have it straight up for awesome range and reception or turn it parallel to the roof when driving around the city...

oh, and i did this CB because it was smaller and would fit where i want it...

i looks like a childs toy, but it actually works really well and is very easy to use....it also both small in width, but depth too...

my suggestion is to get a marine PA speaker, dont use the cobra one...it sucks lol, i used to have one and you couldnt hear it AT ALL over my exhaust...

just my 2 cents....
