My CB (UHF) Install!!
In Aus we use UHF's rather than CB's, but they do the same thing.
Mine is a remote head so all I have all the mechanicals and speaker in behind the steering wheel dash and opted for a windscreen mounted antennae. (Long range one shown - I also have a shorter one for around town)

What is that switch?!?! Looks Cool
Hey JKJase,
Don't think we have that second switch from the right. Does it make the lights go up and down or just dim them? Please tell more!

0 = Driver Only, or driver and Front Passenger
1 = All Seating Positions Occupied
2 = All Seating Positions occupied plus an evenly distributed load in luggage compartment
3 = Driver, plus evenly distrubuted load in luggage compartment
It doesn't dim them - we still have high beam and parkers as normal.

Nice radio, I mounted my Icom duel band (2m/70cm) under the driver seat and put the head unit on the dash. Call-sign is KI4RQV
I use a license plate mount for my comet antenna

I have an ID-800 in my Tundra and had to machine my own panel to mount the front panel in the dash below my after market stereo. Actual radio is under the driver's seat. (It has the exact same form factor as the IC-208.)

Where did you get the cool bracket for the IC-208 front panel? (or is it an ID-800)? I plan on installing an IC-208 in my Jeep when it arrives.

It is an IC-208H and the mount is called the Bug Mount - I bought from Pro-fit-intl.com it uses 3m adhesive, great little mount. I highly recommend it. My friend N1CKI uses it for his IC-2720H also.
