I wanna know how you gutted the tap player? Been thinking bout putting a small CB in there. Does that plastic piece pop right out?

 

thanks man the turn signals only have 3 coats it looks good in the sun i need to do the bumpers black

and man rip that tape player apart only took like 2 mins

 

so small update no pics

i traded all 8 beymas for a dc 5k that was a score

 

The tape player was a breeze in my 99 blazer. Just unbolt the console and there was two little screws holding it in, piece of cake!

 

Thats exactly what I did, Put in a small CB. Although now its unused because I didn't much care for a magnet mount on top of the truck. I just mounted the CB bracket to a metal bracket that held the casette deck in place, made sure it was tight and put it all back together. You can tie in to the power from the casette also, so the power wires are already there. As far as a CB antenna goes, they have to have a good ground or the standing wave (SWR) goes to high and will burn up the final transistor in the CB. Plus your radio wont get out very far either. A magnet mount was the only way without drilling a bunch of holes in the body. The other idea I had was to weld a permanent bracket coming out of the back of the truck and putting a 5.5 foot francis pre-tuned antenna on it. That would give you a fantastic ground, no tuning needed, and be essential for amature use. also allowing the antenna to stick up over the trucks roof quite a bit for better recive and output.
