Socha, how do you have your duals grounded since they are on the toolbox like mine?
Ran a wire from the antenna down to a bolt on the frame rail.

Backon topic ......

I'm running the Lil Wilson mag mount on top of the cab. I like the antenna, but the wire running across my roof to the door right behind the drivers does look a little hokey. I was thinking about pulling the third brake light and running the wire in there and re-attaching the light with some silicone around it just to be safe, but I have the wire so neatly tucked inside of the truck along the rails and such that I really don't feel like ripping it out.

Yep ... I'm lazy ... LOL !!!

As far as my CB mount goes, here it is ....

I like the tire thumper on the 4-wheel stick. Planning on getting into any situations where you might need it

I have a 4 foot fiber antenna on the hood opposite the radion antenna. Also the ash tray question. That is a contoller for a Police/EMS type lightbar with multiple functions.

I might do that, since my 3rd light is messed up. Drill a hole in the lense itself through one of the cargo lamp's and in.
Dunno, I was considering mounting a Monkey made antenna on my truck but it's gonna look messed up on there.

No I wasn't going to drill a hole in the lens itself. I was going to stick it in the hole where the lens goes and then silicone around the back of the lens since it will now stick a little furthe away from the cab. I was going to use black silicone to do the job. Prior to that though i was going to try and drill an indent into the back of the light so that the antenna wire would fit in it. That way the light wouldn't sit TOO far away from the cab.
