Front mounting vehicle radio

Abstract: An improved radio and/or radio tape player combination that is readily mounted in a dashboard from the same convenient position in front thereof in which it is operated or played, but yet is not susceptible to theft by being merely disconnected from the dashboard, due to a transversely oriented front housing incorporated in the construction thereof. The housing, as explained in greater detail subsequently, serves as an effective compartment-bounding structure for the advantageous internal placement of the mounting bolts which attach the radio to the dashboard; the bolts, as a result, being readily masked from view and otherwise rendered difficult to be tampered with.
