Not to hijack this thread, but does anyone know the dimensions required for the new slide-in radios? Since the dash on my 51 is already butchered, I was wondering just how big these radios are. I am contemplating making a 'hood' that will stick out of the dash just enough to accomodate the radio or making some sort of housing that would mount the radio in the center of the cab near the windshield.n Right now I don't have a headliner in so I have several options.

Any suggestions, links, pics would be appreciated.
