Good place for CB?

I've been contemplating on where to put my CB radio for a week now and i still cant decide where it will be out of my way but visable at the same time. Throw me some suggestions. Sorry for the pictures, i'm at work, but the CB is on top of the dash if you were wondering how big it is.

Why not mount it somehow on the inside of the lid of the center console. Out of the way till you need it.

It unscrews from the spot above the DC outlet and you're just left with a connector there and a CB you can put away to keep it out of the way.

not to hijack but, im not saying its ridiculous. Im saying take into consideration that perhaps the person asking probably already searched and ran out of options, or didnt find what he was looking for

There are only TWO options for mounting a CB.

The uber crappy way of mounting it so it is visible.

AND

The uber cool way of mounting it like mine on a WJ.

If you have a ZJ, sorry I can't help you...no one can
