The doka did have the cb on the dash, but when I got a dash untidy it just didnt seem to fit anywhere tidily, so thats when i mounted it under the rhs of the steering colum, yes perhaps a litlle too far forward as it is a knee-cap breaker.

CB can fit OK on a dash tidy, slightly left of centre with wires going through 'certain' holes about dead centre and aerial (c'mon, you lot KNOW it's not really ariel :cry: ) lead going werevere it has to, nromally back to screen, nearside pillar and down to front mounted aerial?)

quaffed some fine cider
So Julie, let us know what is todays' 'fine cider', been sampling Waitrose's selection, and some are extremely fine, mostly from just West of Taunton, Sheppey's and some other nice local presses - Dabinett apple seems particularly choice (glug, glug) :lol:

Sorry Clive, the cb did not want to fit on my dash tidy, well, ok, it would have fitted, but it did not look tidy, it sort of stuck up and with wires all over the place, so it went underneath. Its a girlie truck now you know!
