Re: UHF CB radios


Here is a pic of mine.

It doesn't quite fit widthways having a gap either side which would allow for a made-up bracket to run along side the radio to mount the mic if you wanted to so you don't have to screw holes in the dash.
I know you would get a smaller unit in the pocket (i think someone here has already done that) but you wouldn't get a full din size in is what i was meaning.

Re: UHF CB radios


Yes, as I said before I have the UH089SX, I forgot that i changed it over from my old 88 a while back.

Its a good 10cm or so narrower, and about 5-6cm thinner.

I'll see if it fits in the slot, only prob, no front facing speaker, so i'll have to make a line balancer to patch into the audio somehow.

Re: UHF CB radios


yeah it has a speaker output, but I am refering to bridging it into the car's current audio system.

tying to make a nice invisible integration into the vehicle.

I might just get a cb with a detachable head unit and mount the rest under the driver's seat.

Re: UHF CB radios


I only use my UHF when off-roading, so I haven't got it permanently fixed to avoid worrying about the security aspect and have one less gadget in the car to worry about, so I have run the power and antenna cables to the passenger side foot-well area and just plug in the UHF and leave it there when needed.

Re: UHF CB radios


Yeah mine will be in frequent use, on and off road, so a permanent fixture is a better option.

But I figure if it's not readily visible from a glance therough the window, these ingenious local theives may see less value in breaking a window.

Re: UHF CB radios


Hey guys
Just wandering about the type of aerial bracket that mounts through the grill , not the clamp type that wraps around the nudge bar.
Does anyone have this type and are they a genuine bracket ?
If so i was thinking of fitting one to my exy , even though i have a nudge bar i think they look a lot neater than the clamp type.

Another option is to take the car to a metal fabricater and ask them to weld another driving light bracket to one side of your nudge bar for your ariel to mount to. I think it will cost around $40-$50 and will look neat.

Re: UHF CB radios


I made one up using a scrap piece of galvanised sheet metal. It only has a couple of bends in it (a simple task using a normal bench vice and a hammer) and is mounted under one of the driving lights on the nudgebar. The only hard part was working out the size and angles to clear the monster driving light emoticon

I think I have some close-ups of it and will edit the post when I get a chance to find them...

Found them already on my website (after I found them on one of my old photo backup CD's of course!) but re-uploaded them to sample to create thumbnails as the displayed size of the files on my website was larger than the screen and makes displaying in the forum look ugly...
