Cool. Make sure to run the coax thru either the grommet or the drain plug, into the cab.

It's decent. I actually haven't tuned it yet but I was talking to a guy ~ 3 miles Away. Once I tune it I should be able to get out there a bit more. I mostly use it when I go mudding with my buddies.

Do five miles or so should be doable when tuned? I mostly planning on using mine with local people I know, and trips where we have a group of cars with cb radios.

In my regular cab there was one on the drivers side between the door sill and the rear seat bolt. I have heard that the extended cab should have one somewhere near that location.

There is a rubber grommet under your carpet close to the back glass that is how I ran my coax
