CB shops IL/MO

Never replaced coax b4. It runs across my headliner next to the top of the windshield, out the driver's door jamb, into the door & up thru the mirror brackets to an antenna atop the mirror (I'd guess that's how most do it--but maybe I'm wrong.) Anyone know of anyone on/near I70 in MO/IL, or I55 in IL who could do that job? Currently running stock coax that splits for both the CB & am/fm radio. May have to upgrade the coax.

Thinkin' of upgrading my coax and getting a better antenna than the 'stock' one that comes on the company truck. I wonder how hard it is to re-route a new coax thru the dashboard? I really dont want to go into alot of work on a truck that isnt mine....think that is the main thing that is keeping me from actually doing it.

why waste the time....

Well you are going to need another seperate antenna or your am/fm won't work. This is because the coax from your antennas goes into a multiplexer box then splits from there going to the CB and then to the AM/FM radio.
