Some have mounted their CB in place of the cassette players. I mounted mine where the ashtray was and replaced the lower console with one that has the storage tray instead of the cassette player.
Under that I attached a GM adapter for RCA inputs. That way I used the Aux function to play my DVD audio, or Ipod.

What is this GM adapter that you used for RCA inputs in place of the tape deck? Part number would be appreciated. Thanks HenryJ.
