Adding a PA to the CB

Any suggestions on a good PA set up? Currently running a cobra CB with a spot for PA hook up. Wondering if anyone can suggest a good PA setup for me. Also, any pics of where you mounted it if available.

i just mounted mine today. i mounted my speaker on a plate right above the bumper. i have a 98 2wd. i ran the wire from the back of the cb under to carpet on the driver side through the fire wall and then spliced the wire to the back of my 50 watt speaker. its loud and its awesome. mine works great. if you have any questions ask.

the 50watt is plenty loud. i put behind the grill. its a hard spot to explain. if you need a picture i can send you one. i bought the radio shack 50 watt speaker. its water proof and i had to drill new holes and get new screws from home depot. but all in all it was a pretty ease install

Picked up the 100w from radio shack today. Any pics of you install? What kind of wire did you use to run it to the cb, and what kind of connectors did you splice in?
My speaker came with about a 1' wire attached to it, so I'm gonna have to run something.
