Installed my CB set up this morning. It's a Cobra, I can't remember the model off the top of my head but its just a cheap basic model. Nothing to fancy or crazy. And also installed my favorite item, a pair of bright red Barjan 4ft whips. So on with the pictures.

A cb antenna gets its signal off of reflecting or bouncing the signal off of a flat surface, in this case the bed. So if I were to let's say mount only the left one the signal it receives would be predominately from the right. The second covers signal from the left that way doubling my signal area. I could actually get the same effect mounting one in the dead center of the bed but that would just look goofy.
