Hi ron. You could build an overhead console. I built one for my explorer, you can see a picture of it in my Gallery.

The cobra c75wxst shouldn't be hard to find a place to install it. You could mount it on your center console between the seats or on your dash below the steering wheel.

ron, I put a cobra c75wxst in my explorer work great. I put a hole in my arm rest console but if I could do it again, I would put the plug down between the carpet and the center console. That way you can take it back out and have no holes.

Check out my gallery. I have a pic showing where my CB is located. It's very handy and a simple install.
