Unless you beef up the mounting point i am affraid you will shed the same fait that my dash did. thats just my 2 cents and story. Good luck! red2k
    Its braced under the mount and its thru the dash and the brace underneath.I almost drilled without locating the brace....and it would have broke out..thanks for the heads up
