ABSTRACT:
A rectangular frame has a plurality of slots and apertures formed therein for use in mounting any one of a plurality of different radios thereon in a selected position. A plurality of bar members are formed along each of the corners of the frame. Formed in the frame directly below each of the bar members and running in a row along the inner edge of each bar member is a row of apertures. Brackets for use in mounting the frame to the vehicle dashboard or other convenient portion of the vehicle fit matingly on each of the bars for slidable motion therealong. Each bracket has a tab member which is adapted to matingly snap into one of the apertures running along the bar member. The brackets are slidably adjusted along their associated bar members to a selected position opposite one of the apertures in which position the tabs thereof are permitted to snap into the aperture to lock the bracket in the desired position. If the bracket is to be moved to a different position the tab thereof can be moved out of the aperture with a suitable tool such as a screwdriver to permit slidable movement of the tab to a new position along its associated bar member opposite another one of the apertures.
