I cut out a section under my steering column Same size as face of cb and built a new mount that the ears of the bracket are twice as long as the original mount. put the mount on upside down on the cb and have the cb sticking out of the hole I cut about a inch and a half . Its easy to get to and no one can see it if they are peaking in the windows (theifs) and will not hit your knees. Then I just loop the mic over the column and dont have to drill any holes in the dash for a cb mic holder or have it hanging from my mirror
