CB's, Bluetooth, & Sync

Does anyone know of a way to get a CB to broadcast over your speakers through Sync like a cell phone will? What I would like to do is put a CB in the center console (out of the view of theives) without having to run more wires out for an external speaker. I have seen some bluetooth CB's, but they seem to just be set up so that you can receive cell phone calls on them.

If not, have any of you installed CB's yet on the 2011? If so, where did you put them?

There is usually an external speaker plug on the back of the CB that you can plug into an auxilary on your stereo (if you have it).

I can't really remember, if on the 2011's have the usb and 2.0mm plug in the console. My mustangs do and my wife is gone. If it is you can plug into the 2.0 jack and use aux on the radio. I mount mine on the floor on the drive train hump. I fool w/ mine all the time checking swrs and what not.

I didn't even think of that. I do have that jack under the USB. Time to buy a male/male cable and give it a try. Thanks.
