I transfered the electronics to my Badlands Apex 12k to an allegedly abs sealed box I bought from Amazon. Like you, I mounted the box on the passenger side behind the headlamp using a stainless steel bracket. After its first summer, I noticed the box started to deform from I'm guessing the...

I bought this bluetooth adapter for my 2006 to stream music: https://www.amazon.com/USA-BT45-TOY-Bluetooth-Select-1998-2014/dp/B0178G5RRE?tag=ihco-20. It was really easy to install and has worked flawlessly for the four years I've owned my LC. I highly recommend it.
I have the same radio and used this. I wanted to keep both sockets so I just drilled a hole in the panel in between the sockets.

With the current version of this overhead console mount, I estimate you lose about 25% of rearward visibility. Now I already have a rear shelf mounted to my rear grab handles. So, my rearward view was already obscured. In my opinion, it's worth it for the gain in instant information.
I had a ScanGauge II installed in a mount in my overhead console. It worked great and provided all the information I needed after I had sent in back to the Manufacturer to get the latest firmware and programmed in the correct x-gauge commands for my trans temp and TPMS sensors. The only...
Recently I noticed air, hot or cold, wasn't blowing from my center vents flanking the radio. Air flows great through the outboard vents. I confirmed my vent flaps were open. So, I removed the driver's side vent to find out what is wrong. It appears the internal flapper that I believe either...
The route mentioned above is definitely the best way to go if you can. But if you can't for some reason, try adding a drip loop or two to prevent water from running into your rear hatch area. I didn't add a drip loop to my GMRS antenna cable when I initially installed it to a bracket that mounts...
What you're describing is certainly doable. My friend built something similar for his rig. However, I recommend looking into either an SPOD as mentioned above or a Switch Pro if you're not fully invested in a DIY solution. I personally have a Switch Pro which keeps all of my power and ground...
