As for a clip, it needs no clip as the cable to the mike is stretched out so I'll probably have it dangle from the rear view mirror. But the temptation to get a Motorola Motrac or Mocom radio is there as well.
Cool. I have Messenger 4175 [40 channel]. I used it in my '67 K/10 Suburban.
Not sure if it still works... I also have a Messenger I and a II.
In my '68 Stepside, I still have a Motorola remote speaker. Also the spring/ball antenna mount is still on the rear of the driverside stepfender.
You could get a magnetic-base mic clip, and stick the mic where ever you wanted. Dangling from the RVM is a distraction.
