Hello Paul,
I've attached may radios that way. Unfortunately,
some PO has replaced the shaft-mounted radio and cut a
DIN size opening. With those puppies, the radio cage
does all the supporting. I have considered adding a
strap fron the rear of the cage up to one of the
courtesy light mounting screws. That way, I make no
more changes (read: drill no new holes) but add some
rigidity to the cage/radio mount.
Again, thanks,
rick
