Hi Guys
Trying to maintain the dash of my 65 looking stock, I added a modern radio in my glovebox, however it is just sitting there as when the door is closed you dont see it I know it bothers me to know that it is just sitting there i would like to see if anyone has done this..
thanks

I did the same thing on a 64 Tempest, first installed a secret audio module in the glove box and later moved it to the underdash tissue dispenser

Later I transferred it to the Elky, first I tried the sunvisor mount and later ended up installing it in the drivers door panel. Since it operates with a remote control you really don't have to see it to operate.

Just a few possible suggestions for you.

Thank you for the picts, I have a piece of plexiglass about one inch thick that I am going to cut to fit over the radio and see how I can fit it inside the glovebox..
