CB & Antenna Mounting Ideas
These are pictures I found from other Jeep owners who mounted CB's and Antennas.
I decided to go with this option, but I mounted it on the passenger side.
The bracket itself is pretty cheap and I've got metal to mount to.
I had to slim down that plastic tab that holds the tailight on.
Here's a link to the guy I got the idea from...

Another guy had this suggestion.
Using a 4' antenna would give me 2' above the roof line.
I would have added a heavy duty spring to keep from bending the bracket or snapping the antenna on trees
and something like a tennis ball, (but not so tacky looking)
to keep the antenna from whapping against the back of the Jeep.
I think this bracket was a custom job.
My big concern is that the entire license plate area insert is plastic
and I would have needed to make sure that it could take the stress
& I'd have needed to run up that hole between the lights and ground the mount to something metal.

I went with this guy's idea for mounting the radio.
These were some other ideas some people had...
but I readly didn't care for these...s
