Default CB Mount

I've been looking at CB mounts cause I'm getting sick of not being able to put my truck into 4 low since my CB is mounted right there under the dash. I saw the CB mount on Genos Garage. Where exactly does that one mount??

I think it would be cool to mount my CB right in front of the center seat so that the face is pointing up, if you can visualize what I'm saying.

CB/Ham Radio mounts for 03-09 Dodge Ram Trucks - eBay (item 280584530231 end time Mar-03-11 20:41:29 PST)

this is the exact same one i used with my cobra on my 02' and it worked perfect. I mounted it real close to the seat to it looked real flush and almost hidden from view

I will have to get a pic of it and put on here,its kinda hard to explain, but i basicly took some of the meatal strap that has the holes in it that are spaced about a inch apart and then the same but in angle and there are two bolts under the seat that bolt the middle seat to the frame and bolted the angle peices to that. Then used the flat to come up infront of the seat to mount the radio bracket to. I was just using that type of metal to mock something up to build something a little better but i ran out of time and just left it and havent messed much more with it. You cant really see the metal at all just looks like my radio is stuck to the front of the seat.
