if you just pop a piece of aluminum and fill the entire box you can mount it with out much effort. my buddy had his just sitting in there.

Send a PM to Kelsfine69. He built two of them for me. One for my non A/c truck and one for my AC truck. They are both really nice.

or you could do something really trick. i'm doin it on my 2 trucks.

take the face off the radio and solder a piece a wire to each of the prongs on both the face and headunit . then you will be able to put the face anywhere and mount just the cd player in the glove box or console or where ever. i'm doin mine in the rearview mirror.

Kelsfine69 do you make those? How much are they for an air truck?

That is the sharpest insert I have seen. If your interested in making these I would be interested in one for air truck & one of the other.

Here are pics of my installs....

Green one is non/AC...I added a glovebox light....:)

Kel already posted my AC truck's install...(the red one).

The little eyeball is an extender that allows me to operate the radio with the glovebox door closed. I built a simple anti-power-spike harness to prevent frying the extender. Works awesome.:metal:

Well I checked my messy work bench:lol: and i have 2 A/C boxes left and 7 regular glove boxes. If i get enough responses for these I will pay my vendor dues. They would be $50US plus $25 US shipped anywhere in the USA. The price of aluminum has gone way up but since I made these last year, they are last years prices.

These Are Nice But I Dont Like The Idea Of Reaching All The Way Across The Cab To Play With The Radio/cd, Especially When Driving.[ Crash !!]
I Have Factory Buckets And Am Working On Putting Mine In The Original Center Console.
