Pete 579 radio install outside of cubby

So for anybody who has wondered how to put a bigger radio in a 579 Pete with out drilling holes in the plastic I Finally did it Lol. Hardest part is running the wires. I look out the little Sun visor In the middle measured out the holes I took my bracket for my connex and bought one of the cheap adjustable brackets from the truck stop got some future super glue and a roll of electrical tape. Glue just the flat piece from the adjustable bracket to the top of the bracket for your radio I put quite a bit on it clamped it together for about 5 minutes then wrapped it in electrical tape as tight as I could get it. One it helps hold it together and also helps hide that you Glued brackets together. Then used the screws from the visor and tightened it down its sturdy and tight doesnt vibrate or shake. Then to hide wires and coax is a little tricky you have unscrew the visor clips take the curtain track down on the driver side take out 3 screws under it take out 3 screws holding the black tray In In the cubby hole Then you can see a metal cross bar you get to get the wires under it and pull Then out behind the windshield and plug Them in to the radio. Then put everything back together all total took me little over an hour with some cheap supplies from truck stop.

 

Thanks. Got this truck I'm November and I bought a little Uniden to put in the cubby hole boss man did want me drilling holes for a bracket so I didn't put my connex In here. Well I Got sick of being talked over and people not being able to hear me. So I was sitting over the weekend waiting to unload on Monday was about midnight Saturday night drinking on a 40 and looking up thinking how can I do it and then it just came together lol. I looked and looked online for a write up on it but I couldn't ever find anybody that had done it. I figured gotta be more sees people out there with the same problem

 

I have a connex 4300hp Its around 65 watts And I havent had any fuse problems
