Installation of a UHF CB in a Tiguan

[T&M]

I should clarify that the IC-440 mentioned is in fact a model where all the controls and display are on the handset. The radio can therefore be mounted anywhere out of the way, and is not really the issue. All you need is to run the handset lead to somewhere convenient on the dash. There is plenty of room under the driver/passenger seat.

Can anyone tell me if the plastic covers in the corners of the roof rails can be removed?

@coastie, I am still considering a handheld as you suggested.

I'm thinking about the GME model that is very similar. Antenae mount without a front b/bar would probably end up being via a "z" bracket near the passenger's side of the bonnet.

We already have a handheld unit, and although they are better than nothing, the reception/transmission is no comparison.
