Default Hooked up the Cb

So i finally got around to installing my cb radio, i couldnt find a whole in the fire wall to run the wires through, so i just made my own whole. now my delema is where to hook up my PA speaker, any ideas. my friend suggested on top of the rack, and i am actually considering it.

I put mine in the grill. I had it in the engine bay, but it wasn't as loud. It fit perfectly behind the grill in my 96. You can hear it perfect and it is hidden very good.

put it in the grill you can mount it right by the bumper. you can barely see it and its nice and loud. you can barely see the tip of it right below the g in this picture.

yea you have to take out the grill. there is a spot between the bumper and radiator that you can mount it to.

I didn't take the grill off. there was a plastic piece that goes around where the hood shut. there were two pins holding it on. pulled the pins out and pulled the plastic piece off. then just found a place to screw into. took like 5min.
