UNIDEN 980 SSB Bearcat, Cobra 29 XL, or Cobra 75 WX ST?

Trying to decide on a CB for my 2015 JKUR. I had a Cobra 75 WX ST in my last Jeep, but I was thinking about going with a full size CB this time. I'm thinking I will put either the UNIDEN 980 SSB Bearcat or, Cobra 29 XL in the center console(center arm rest), and attach an external speaker. Would this work well and be better Cobra 75 WX ST, or would I be better off going with the Cobra 75 WX ST?
 
I have a Cobra 29 lx and had to mount it overhead. I thought about the console but will not fit in the factory. There are some aftermarket tuffy consoles that are wide enough and have provisions for din size units which might be a option for me later if I don't do the overhead console
 
Cobra 75 with external speaker. Works great and takes up very little room. I've been using them for at least 12 years with no issues.

I like my bearcat 980. But the cobra 29 is a good radio to. It's bigger than the 980 so depending on where you were going to mount it.
 
I have the bearcat 980. The display is kind of hard to see in bright daylight. Other than that, it works great and IMO is better looking and blends better with the stock interior of the JK.
 
How do you mount it over the rear view mirror like that? Will it work with a soft top? Will the Bearcat fit in the center arm rest?

And, yes I have both a hard top and soft top works great with both. I actually have my soft top on in that pic.
