I LOVE THIS RADIO! It has so many features, and the color changing LCD display is awesome! I made mine match the color of my Kenwood head unit and now the inside of my truck looks sick. Easy to use, comes with mounting hardware as well as a great microphone. Cobra makes great products, you won't be disappointed!

First, Great service CB World. Your web page was easy to surf, just the right amount of product info per page and it loaded fast. Thanks for the quick call back via cell phone. Second, I bought a Cobra 29LX CB Radio with Color Changing Display and put it in a Ford F150 truck. I conducted my first radio check this morning and thanks to one of the local operators, I have my CB dialed in. It was easy to install, easy to adjust and will be a great asset to my truck. CB World has been saved on my computer in the favorites section. Thanks JM

After 50 years of GOOD cobra cb's this is the perfect CB radio. Easy to install and use. The display is awesome day or night what ever color you chose. Green is best for me. If you need a radio for work or play this has all the right stuff. I used a Firestik antenna with this radio and was able to get it tweaked good enough to talk farther than I wanted to. This radio trouble shoots for you. Had a old bad antenna install and it displayed my problem. Can not say enough good about the display and all the bell and whistles! Not to many bells or whistles just enough to make this the one to have. Only 20,000 built? Better get one!
