    Just wanted to post a photo of my install on my 2015 ram. Was looking for a neat, clean install and here's what I came up with. Thanks 20170613_150751.jpg

    Its a 3 ft firefly. I mainly use the cb when traveling with my 5th wheel camper to hear traffic problems. Seems to work great, although not much local cb radio traffic where I live, So ill have get on the interstate to really know 20170613_151316.jpg for sure

    That's a great-looking setup you got!

    If you find the 3-foot Firefly needs a little more ambition, try a longer one or do like me: get a 62-inch Wilson 1000 magnet mount and plop it in the middle of the roof and bring the coax in the back slide window. That will get the antenna way up there and unhindered in the airwaves and give you the best chance at hearing and giving those highway advisories that can make a difference in bad situations.
