Been testing this for a bit, it’s up on the website now. @Mountains2Metal just released this footwell bracket that occupies the empty space where a clutch would normally be. I mounted my Midland MTX275 base unit but there are a number of possible uses. Plenty of room under there

I did a stealth install in the center console behind the USB port. Lotsa room back there.

I just threw mine in the glove box but did a similar stealth install for the mic. Nice to see they now have two bracket options though.

I'm looking for a good radio mount but unfortunately that space is far from "unused" for me!
I do like the M2M under dash mount in theory but I hear it often has to be modified to actually work...

Mounted my MXT575 in the same space a couple years ago using a bracket I fabricated. Works great in that space! I also mounted an external speaker on a overhead Molly panel because it just wasn’t loud enough under the dash

lol! Thanks!

Since it's behind the plastic of the center console, the sound gets muffled a bit, you need to go into the midland menu settings and select that audio comes out of the base unit AND the mic - that way you can plug in a little earwig thing and look like a badass secret agent when you drive around.

This gets my vote for Bronco Pic of the Day. Looks good!

this is my installation.
Main board under the rear panel where the windows switch.
And i run external cable with female conector where the wireless charging plate.
I didn't want to drill in the dash so i print bracket instead

The Midland 575 takes a small mod, the 275 fits just fine, so it really boils down to the size

I found out that some Bronco models have less room under the console, and the 575 is about 1/3 larger than the 275. I tried without success to mount it like Draughton has shown, but the HVAC ductwork prevented it with the 575.

I ended up using the MTM bracket attached to a console bolt. I put foam under the sides of the bracket so I don't get rattles or movement. I used minimal foam to allow for air movement and can install a fan if it ends up being to confined to allow cooling.

Remove this bolt and slide the mount over

Goes where the clutch should be but the website says lower or remove the glovebox to access the mounting location…

I mounted the Midland external speaker for my GMRS setup above the dead pedal - along with the sound from the handheld mic, it really helps to hear radio transmissions much better.
