          I just done my CB the other week.

          Put it underneath the CD player. There was a wee velvet cubby box under mine but it had a back to it so couldn't get CB right back. Had to take the dash to bits to get the cubby box out and cut the back off it and bring the wires for the power etc up.

            To answer your question Pirate it's one big hole that used to house a double din radio cassette. Most people bought an adaptor fitting that allows a single unit to be fitted with a cubby box underneath.

            Nice Pioneer MP3 player Smithy, I've got the same model in mine. Sounds great through a 900 watt Rockford Fosgate amp and 2 x 1000 watt subs.

                If it's got one of those brackets with it, you can also bolt it down in front of the gear lever.
