Seeing that we'll be putting 2800+ miles on the 914 a couple of weeks (http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=278089) from now at, ahem, highway speeds and may need another form of entertainment besides the 500 watt Bluetooth amp. Has anyone mounted a CB antenna on a 914? If so, what worked for you?

I'm thinking I can fabricate a mount to bolt up to the threaded inserts under the factory "roll bar" meant for the accessory ski rack and easily run the wire inside from there.

Thanks for all the suggestions!

I had the CB in an FJ Cruiser that we did a lot of offroading with a club. Was very handy in those situations to understand where everyone was in the group or if someone was in stuck and needed assistance. While driving to and from events it was mildly entertaining to listen to CB traffic. Once in a while you learned of the location of a radar trap, but those were few and somewhat unreliable.

The CB is purely for entertainment purposes and potential conversation between vehicles if we happen to team up with anyone. My One Lap goal is to finish with no speeding tickets and a fully functioning vehicle. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
