Best console for a 2001 S10 pickup

Post by radiocomms95 »

What consoles have you used that work well in an S-10 pickup? I have 3 pieces of equipment to mount, and may soon have a 4th as well.

Automatic. I have a VHF radio, a UHF radio, and a switchbox to mount. I also have a handheld scanner, but will use a cell-type mount for that, so I can remove it from the truck when not in use.

I'm looking at Jotto-desk contour consoles, in the 9" variety.
