Secure Mobile Installtion?

[W4BOZ]

SO...having something like a common Kleenex box with an open bottom that you could just drop over the radios would be one suggestion. Anything that looks 'normal'...but does not give the radios away would work. Think about a fake book, package, carryout drink tray, folded road map, ball cap, etc. All of these could be constructed or reinforced so that you could just pop them over your radios when you park and no one would be the wiser.

This is what I do. I have the faceplate of a Kenwood TM-V7A remote mounted in pretty much the same location as you (the OP) except my car uses it for the change holder. Also, on the side of the center console near the faceplate, I have a CB mounted. When I'm not in the car I cover up the whole thing with an old towel that is similar in color to the inside of my car. It looks like I'm covering something up to a degree by doing this but if you use a big enough towel and position it correctly, it looks like you just left it there.
