ABSTRACT:
A universal keyed mounting kit for mounting a radio or the like to support brackets in the vehicle includes at least one mounting bracket member having a hole therein for attachment to the radio. The mounting bracket has a plurality of apertures each for passing therethrough a locking bracket. Each aperture includes a key structure for matching with a key structure on the locking bracket. A plurality of locking brackets are provided, each for passing through a corresponding aperture of the mounting bracket from a radio side of the mounting bracket to an outside thereof. Each locking member has a key structure for engaging the key structure of the corresponding mounting bracket. This eliminates the need for screws, nuts and bolts, glue, etc. for fixing the locking brackets to the mounting brackets. Preferably, the mounting brackets have a plurality of apertures at different angles so that the mounting bracket may be adapted to a wide variety of vehicle models.
