I too considered the old "UHF in the ash tray slot" trick but didn't want to loose the ash tray or butcher the dash and was concerned about the clarity and volume from the speaker, ended up opting for a roof console which opens up your options to a much bigger range of UHF's. I'm running a full din size unit (ICOM IC-400PRO) which have the speaker mounted in the face of the unit and its up at ear level too. Easy to hear and see, perfect for old farts....... (also now have better interior lighting (LED), map lights, storage and it looks neat)
Cheers,
