So this past weekend I "upgraded", I'll use that term loose (some won't agree).

Installed a Pyle shaft mount stereo $20 Amazon and rubber ducky antenna $5 Amazon

Install EASY, used the stock radio bracket and just trimmed the Pyle bezel to fit (although I did trim to much)

Installed a dash mounted accessory holder.
I had the mount left over from a 2010 Challenger, it fits great. I did not search for a FJ60 specific mount.

I did order a universal magnet to go with the mount as the old iPhone 3 holder has no purpose anymore. http://www.proclipusa.com/mobile-de...versal-phone-holders/magnetic-car-mounts.aspx

Easy just loosened the dash and then tightened the mount and it holds real good, I got the large magnet so I could swivel the device towards me and dang if that magnet is STRONG!

Installed a CB radio, firestick antenna and speaker cup holder combo.

Easy, Installed the CB tuner under the center console, and just screwed the speaker cup holder to the center console, ran wire under dash thru FW and to mount.

Looks great! Personally, I would have mounted the CB on the other opposite side instead of next to the radio antenna. And I'm not sure if you know this, but the old in-dash speaker location makes for a great place to put a CB external speaker.
 
Looks good... but be careful not to spill your coffee into the speaker!

Test it, but you might get some interference having the 2 antennas so close together... maybe not.

You might want to spend your next free weekend dealing with that roof rust!

Keep at it... !

How did you secure the firestick there? Bolts?
