| There are a few of us running the Midland 75-822, with Bandi mount and 3' or 4' Firestick II antennas. It is a pretty good combo! | |

Big Bill combo, right? That combo started over on fj cruiser forums I believe. So a lot of those guys run it. It is basically same as what I mentioned...except it comes with the Cobra cb and the Firefly antenna. After researching, I went with the Midland because it can be taken outside the vehicle and used as a handheld. I also like the firestick II antenna. I'm pretty sure they are close in the same price range. I don't think you could go wrong either way

| Well basically, the best place to mount your antenna is gonna be on the hinge of the trunk, but to do so, you need a bracket called the Bandi Mount, which costs $50 haha | |
