Control Head Top View.

Here is the control head placement. I used a steel strap to mount the control head to the front console of the Ranger. This is a great location for me, as you can rest your arm on the console and easily control the radio. The only disadvantage is that you have to take your eyes off the road for more complex operations, but I still prefer this since most of the time I am just tuning around. As I am getting used to the radio, I can make a lot of changes without even looking down.

The separation kit has a mounting cradle for the control head. I mounted the cradle to a steel strap which I found at the hardware store. This steel strap was supposed to be a mounting strap for a common drain downspout. A little trimming and a couple of bends later, it was a perfect mount for the control head. I have a magnetic mic mount bracket on the side.

See the side views too.
