Default Mounting my CB

I have a 98 f150 4x4 and im trying to find a good place to mount my CB any suggestions or places that you guys have mounted them that work? And what kind of antenna are some of you guys running? I have a 102 that i might run but was thinking about just running a firestik.

i allways mount it just under the radio in front of the 4x4 shifter, its out of the way and cuts down on the potential eye sores.. also is handy for running the caox out thru the floor and to wherever the hell you want it. i like the little wilsons as far as a mobile whip is concerned!
