Hi, Just saw your photos re mount for the codan. Looks good, will keep it in mind when I mount my 9350

Hows that Cruise control going Matt, any problems with it? If not which brand did you use as im looking to do the same thing in mine.
Cheers
Paul
Ditto,
Have heard of the AP50, but not the AP500 before. Will keep looking until I find something decent

Gday All,
Just finished mounting up my new Icom in the GQ. I liked what people had done with the GME and Uniden slim units and thought a Icom looked about the right size to fit in the hole without too much modification. So here goes. I warn you though about the iPhone quality photos :confused:
This radio is great so far, it has been modified slightly to make it a much more powerful unit :)
Began with pulling the Facia off the dash, Mmm I like wires :)
http://i608.photobucket.com/albums/t...8/7c61e4a1.jpg
The hole needed to have the little notches that the ashtray catches on filed off and the metal slider removed to look a bit like this.
http://i608.photobucket.com/albums/t...8/345ca52c.jpg
Slip the radio in
http://i608.photobucket.com/albums/t...8/6ca0e7ec.jpg
Put your dash back together
http://i608.photobucket.com/albums/t...8/239cabac.jpg
And fire it up :)

Sounds like we may have to have a Vic gathering at Matt's new home town??????
It look great mate.
Hi Matt, still love your setup.... Are you still running the mini mac????
And reason why you chose a mac over a pc?
Hey Todd
Well i guess its just because im a mac person, I can use windows but i very at home with a mac so i just wanted to keep it that way :)
And unfortunately no, the roof console has been taken out of the troll due to a few reasons, trying to make my car a little more legal and i can just about do everything on the ipad now. But i do have future plans for it, Youll just have to wait and see :)
Just chilling by the lake :)
