I've been weighing my options for a while in regards to CB radio mounts for my Wrangler TJ. First and foremost I was looking for an option that didn't require any cutting or drilling. I know that to some people that seems stupid, but I never like to drill holes or cut things unless absolutely necessary. It makes returning the vehicle to stock (should I ever need to), much easier.
Anyways, I almost bought the Rugged Ridge CB radio mount that installs on the dash with no drilling. However, someone brought to my attention a lesser known CB radio mount called the Arizona Rocky Road CB radio mount.
I was a little hesitant at first since the website is a bit old and outdated, not to mention there aren't any very clear pictures of the mount. I ordered it though since I'd heard good things about it from people. It arrived very well packaged and very well documented with every single bit of hardware and wiring you need to install it. Needless to say, I'm very, very impressed!
Absolutely no drilling required. It literally bolts right in to the front hole of your soft top door surrounds. You can tell that while it is a very simple part, much care and thought went into the design. It sits just far enough back that it still allows full use of the sun visors, but not far enough back that it feels like it's in your way or obstructing your view. Additionally, all of the wiring for the CB radio runs inside of it (through a small hole) that allows for the wiring to be neatly tucked away, out of sight.
For roughly $70 plus shipping, this is a bargain if you ask me. Hands down this is one of the best 'cheap' mods I've done to my Wrangler so far. They make it for the Wrangler YJ, TJ and JK.
I highly recommend picking one of these up if you're looking for an elegant and clean way to mount your CB radio, that places it out of the way. Another huge plus about this mount is that it's much more than a CB radio mount. You can use it to mount all sorts of other things up and out of the way, including a HAM radio as well.

Lastly, here's a picture of the mount installed on my 2005 Wrangler Rubicon.
