CB mount question
Hi everyone! Very new to the club! First post on the forum (after lurking the threads for months). I have an 06 lr3. Bought fairly recently. Still pretty much stock. Im looking to install a CB and 102" whip antenna on the truck. Ive seen many people with discos mount their antennas through a ball mount on the rear bumper. And i like the look of this mount But seeing as the bumper is plastic im a little confused as to how that would work any info/advice would be appreciated!

You can not see the bumpers on the LR3, you see the bumper covers. Pretty much how all modern vehicles are made. The actual bumper is underneath and solid metal. Remove the recovery point cover and you can see it. So once you punch through the plastic you have a solid surface. Assuming you are not too close to the edge.

I don't want to drag your CB ambitions down .. CB's look awesome and if your in groups they are awesome or if you get into an emergency out in the bush you just never know they could be a lifesaver .. but .. but
I spent a ton of money on a new CB .. the install was a pain .. tuned it . .lots of work ..
I turn it on and what do I hear .. ? Low Down dirty low life's cussing up a storm talking about everything from prison time served to some fat women he banged 30 years ago drunk and ran away in the morning .. not very PG. Not really the types of guys I wanna chat with .. your locale might be different than mine but .. when I turned it on .. I was pretty taken aback .. and wondered why I got it in the first place ..
Every time I turn it on .. same thing .. same voices .. same guys .. not a crowd I wanna be a part of... CB radios are awesome ,, .but just saying .. again your locale might be different than mine ..

Well im from the south so you still got a lot of old cbs out here especially with the offroad crowd. And i already had the radio and mount lying around so the only hassle was getting a new antenna. And also i travel all over the country for work and having a cb on the road seems like a good option to have.
