I use one in mine. A Cobra 75 WX-ST. But I didn't want an antenna on my car, so I got an antenna from a handheld CB and mounted it in the back window. No I don't get any range, but it's enough to talk to my friends with CB's in their trucks when we conoy somewhere. Pluse I have picked up the occasional bear report.

I also have the Cobra 75WXST as well as a permanent CB antenna (although you wouldn't know it unless you're very observant). Pictures and other information posted in earlier thread here.
You can also get a cellphone style antenna that mounts on the back glass. It won't give you alot of range, but it's decent enough to usually let you know where old Smokey Bear is.

Hey I like the setup.
Do you use that Venice antenna for AM/FM too? Is it hooked to some kind of a splitter with a filter or something, so you don't blow up your head unit when you transmit with the CB?
