I'm looking to get into CB radio and don't know the first thing about routing a cable out of the car - basically I'll need an antenna on the outer body/roof of the car and I'm wondering the best/least distructive way to get coax cable from the cabin to the roof. Any advice would be apppreciated

 

I ran my XM antenna under the weather stripping, then along the right side panel seams. It hid well, but the wire was really thin.

CBs have thick wires no? which antenna do you have/planning on using? i too am interested in installing one as well

 

Where does your cable enter/exit the vehicle itself?


CB cable is coaxial, like a TV cable. I'm considering a Little Wil antenna, fairly well reviewed and shouldn't need to drill a hole in my car for it

 

i placed the magnet mount right in front of the existing antenna, then i cut a really small hole in the weather stripping.

i saw the little will, its got a 3 foot whip, was considering mounting it in the same area, but running that thick wire seems tricky
