Radio in Glovebox

Mikes57BuginPA · Posted: Fri May 22, 2015 5:52 am Post subject: Radio in Glovebox

I want to install my Retrosound radio in the glovebox of my 57. Has anyone ever done this? Are there any mounting patterns or instructions available anywhere?

Thanks for any help.

I've seen aftermarket companies offer a fiberglass glove box with radio mounting

Is the glovebox of a 57 the same as a 58??

I can only find the fiberglass glovebox for 58 & up so far.

Thanks 58Cabrio but I was hoping to find a glove box with an insert to mount my radio.

Looks like they only make radio inserts for 58 & up.
I emailed them to see if it's true.
