Bracket for radio with equalizer vs without

No, the bottom plate and bracket on the EQ radio is unique to itself.

Make one out of flat, plate cut to width and bent into an L shape.

Predrill a couple of holes for self-tap screws to secure it to your existing bracket.

No.


Make your own bracket from flat sheet metal.

Is the "bottom plate" a separate piece from the bracket?

It's a separate plate that is press rivets to the bottom plate of the radio. It would be difficult to find unless someone has a trashed parts radio and is willing to separate. Better off making your own.


The bracket is different from the non-EQ radio that holds the cubby. Those brackets connect to the radio plate via 5 small rivets. Highlighted here


You can carefuly drill these out to remove this bracket, and then you can fab a bracket and use these 5 holes to rivet it back onto the plate. I think i've used low-profile 1/8" rivets to do this.

You'll just have to get a thin peice of metal and carefully bend it similar to above to make a support.

Right at 8:45, this video shows how those bottom brackets connect to the radio bottom plate.

PS, i'd be willing to buy the bracket you remove off the radio that held the cubby.
