You'll need some one to host those pics. Usually some one on the board is generous enough to host them for you, but if not, you could always upload them to imageshack.ws.

P.S. - I'm looking forward to seeing them.

Shoot me an email at webmaster@idascan.org and I'll get them hosted for you... If you can keep each email under 4 megs, just send them that way

I owned a 03 Dodge Ram, just lloke yours. Its so tough to mount anything in those because there is no room. The only down fault to putting in a console and filling it with all those radios, is you lost your cup holder now. I installed a console similar to yours with 2 CDM1550 Motorolas and a light controller from Whelen. I also installed an internal cup holder in the console so that I could retain some what of a cup holder. These new vehicles suck for mounting equipment.

What are you doing with all of the speaker audio? Do you have separate speakers for each one, or did you use some kind of combiner?

My favorite with those is when the customer tells me that the want the convienence of a console, but.... oh yeah! They have to keep the use of the factory cup holder tray!

Hi. Thanks cowboy for getting those pictures up for me. The cupholder yea that defently sucks. I have the speakers mounted under the drivers side dash 3 seperate motorola speakers, plenty of room under there you do however have to turn the volume up a little bit higher but it works fine. This truck turned out to be very easy to mount and run all the wires in, both drivers and passengers seat empty underneath. I have 1 power supply under each seat and the the 100 watt spectra under 1 and the system 9000 siren box under the other. There was also a large gromet under the drivers side dash for getting wires threw the firewall.

The install looks great. It's definitely one of the better ones I've seen. I used to do similar types of "high-end" jobs and I can appreciate how much planning and install time it takes to make a job look really professional. I had asked about the speakers because that was always one area I couldn't do much about. (I never thought about mounting them inside the dash..) I eventually did find a solution though. Check out these guys: http://www.fleetradioproducts.com. They make these little audio combiners/amps that let you use one speaker for up to 4 radios. It's a great product worthy of an install such as yours.

Very nice. Im just finishing up the install on my 2004 Ram Regular Cab. (12 Hide-a-way Strobes / Siren / LEDs / Quad Band Radio /Switch Panel) You have given a few ideas that I just might have to "steal" from you. Again, looks great.

The regular cab opens up some additional possibilities. That storage area behind the seats is where I mounted my speakers and the transceiver boxes. I was able to in dash a Spectra A-4 head in the dash pocket and
I'm in the process of putting a HHCH A3 Spectra in that rear storage area
and just routing the mic. cable around the seat. If one can do without the
cupholders it looks like a good place for a A-9 head or (2) A4/A5 heads.
