Did not know you wanted that, lol. Sorry, mine, this might be ghetto, but I did not drill a hole. I had the coax ran through the drivers side. There is a rubber grommet when you open the door and look near the hinges, I pulled it out and ran it though there. Not the best idea, I dont have it there anymore. But it worked for me for the time I was using it.

And thanks man, that was the same truck, the green was first OE color, mad tree turned it to the bluish/purple color, and now its murdered out from a mad BMW. I did all the work and paint.

HAHA i have no idea, that was a while ago when it was that color. I cant remember why it was there, my truck is always being used to hold things and used as a work bench.

you can get a cb that has all the controls on the mike so the only thing you see is the mike. Makes for a clean install and doesn't take up any room really. Cobra makes one and a few other companies
