CB antennea mounting

Has anyone come up with a clean neat way and place to mount a CB antennea on a Bronco. I don't like the idea of sticking one on the roof with a magnet . Looking for something that looks right,and works.

I was thinking of mounting dual antennas on the mirrors

That is what I did, I got the split coax and just ran off the mirrors. Works pretty good if you are looking for front and backtransmit and recieve. If you want an all around good antenna than go with a 2-4 ft. off the roof or something off the back. If you go with the mirrors the signal is boosted abit to the front and back.
