    2019 Tacoma TRD OR, basically an off road race truck
    Tied several boat anchors to my truck to destroy MPG.
    Quick question for those of you who have mounted a radio under the driver seat (like the Yeasu 400 main unit). How did you mount it under there?
    I need to get my radio on my rig, but I don't want to just throw it under there. Did you make a bracket to tie into the seat mounts? Or how did you fasten it down? Drill holes?

    thanks

    Mounted radio and external speaker to plexi plate, hang it off the bottom of the drivers seat with cable ties.
    This has worked on our 2nd gen and again on our 3rd gen. Seat moves fine, vents are not blocked, everyone is happy.
