Scanner installed, and hard wired. Has an antenna that sticks to the inside of the windshield on the passenger side, not worth a picture.

Fog lights installed!

Cheap Pilot fog lights from autozone, HID simulated halogens. Cut holes into the bars where the stock fog lights go and installed them.

Shelf above passenger visor. It was a pit getting the angle with the roof to work with the visor, but well worth it. It will be able to hold a vhf radio with no problem and yes I know it needs another coat of paint.

Note: This has been removed, a better unit will go under the seat.

This little thing is sold by the ham radio outlet for holding the remote face plate on several of their radios. It mounts to the seat bolt and can hold several pounds, flexible and yet stiff it also has a mount for holding a mic.
