Hello everyone! This is my first write-up so bare with me!!
I finally got my CB radio equipment and finally was able to install it!
I grabbed a Cobra 18WSTII from Academy Sports & Outdoors for roughly $30 (discount due to me working there).

Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Spring

18' Coax Cable
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001JT1IWU/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_4?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
However I recieved the Coax cable, Mount, and Quick Release Mount from a fellow friend.
I decided that I couldn't mount my antenna on the passenger side because I have a kayak mount on top and I did not want the Antenna interfering with me putting the kayak on top, so I put it on the drivers side tail light.
So first thing first, I pulled the drivers side tail light and put the coax cable in to begin installing the coax cable. After that I began to pull some of the carpet up so the Coax Cable would be HIDDEN.
Through the back area by the hatch.
2nd row
Door jam on the rear drivers side.
Through the drivers seat door jam.
Behind the gas/break pedals and through the center console.
AND BOOM!
CB Radio

After this was done, I went to a local CB shop and they tuned it! I'm ready to rock and roll!!!
