I am getting my certification shortly and I would only want it for the CB and VHF radio, the rest of it I would not want. The reason behind it is just the clean install and ease of access to all controls. Yes I know cobra makes a all in one unit CB, but I don't like it and it is not what I want.
However I would like to see your install as I like to see what everyone has done and could possibly change my mind.

You'll have to forgive some of the guys on here.... Let's just say they qualify for the senior discount. Not only are they long asleep on a Saturday at 11:30 but they're also crabass' during the day!

That is a ton of crap and hell no I am not planning all of that. I only want a spot for the CB and the VHF/UHF radio and possibly some small storage.

Hell the only reason I was up was because I could not sleep. I was surprised to see an answer from Eddie on my other post around the same time.

That looks like the same craft they used to fake the moon landing.

It's for his spotlight he put on top of the rear tire and his winch. It's a cool jeep but he is a true mall crawler for sure.

I was actually looking at the Smittybilt overhead console to add for storage and to mount CB.

I looked at their overhead system and I've heard nothing but complaints and it looks like crap as well. I know function over style should come first, but not when it looks that bad.
For your dual band, just look for a unit with a detachable faceplate. I run a VGC 6600 pro 50 watt tri band. I love the radio, the body fits in the glovebox and the faceplate mounts securely to the windshield for a clean install. I've heard the overhead consoles tend to rattle and that would drive me nuts.
