What about the Realistic 418 instead of the 415? I might try that one.
Yeah, that drop down part on the 415 creates issues, I got lucky and found two existing holes and mounted mine sideways on the right side of the center console next to the factory radio. It pretty much needs to be mounted under something or sideways. I think you're on the right track looking at the other small Realistic models, I think any of them could be period correct and likely candidates for trooper-purchased units as Radio Shack was probably the go to place for CB's back in the '90's.
