I'd like to flush mount a VHF in my dash but I've got plexi covers and a mike cord would be a problem. Is there a radio with a seperate mike location avaiable ?

I use an older version of this Simrad handset model and love it at upper & lower stations for the high intelligibility of reception through the handset speaker over ambient noise.
It's used in conjuction with a black box and a remote speaker for basic monitoring , mounts securely on a dash bracket with cable plugged into a bulkhead /console connector.

Several mfgrs have similar setups as steveandjulia mentioned above, and others have standard fixed-mount VHFs with optional remote mics as frayedknot pointed out. Simrad also has the Remote Commander for wireless 25 watt VHF comms. . http://www.simrad-yachting.com/Products/Remote-Commander/
 
I'll check that out frayed. I'd like to mount the radis flushmount behind the glass and mount the mike and cord outside elswere

I just upgraded to the Standard Horizon GX 5000. Very happy with the performance. I cant believe how much clearer I can hear the transmissions versus my four year old Uniden.
 
Whoops! Sandy, you shouldn't be posting links to competetor's web sites. Les will get mad.
 
I installed an Icom M422 with a remote speaker and Command Mic. The speaker greatly enhances audio quality and the Command Mic offers remote control of the radio. And it doesn't break the bank either.
 
the standard horizon remote mic solves mounting space problems and works well.
