Where have other GU patrol owners fitted their
UHF radio's without having to cut and tuck to make it fit and buy after market consoles? At present
mine is fitted to the right of the gearstick on the side of the console and is difficult to see while driving. Better than workin'

I have a 3400 and mounted the remote head on the under side of the centre part of the dash,behind the gear levers this allows only two small holes to be drilled
which you wont see if you pull it back out.The microphone sits in the 4X4 lever sock
This was the reason i went remote head because it is small and easy to mount.

I have a 3400, and originally planned to install it like Kevin did, vertically where the dummy switches are in the centre console, but eventually mounted it with the HF head; I made a blank panel to replace the ash tray, and fixed both heads to that. Within easy viewing distance. This way, there is no cutting of any of the interior. The main body of both units are bolted under the seats. (yeh, I know that this is not a good place if doing river crossings).
Managed to hide speakers under the dash, bolted to the firewall.
