Default Scout radio location

Finally putting a radio in the scout, but i do not know were to put it. It originally had some type of center console but it is not there anymore. I may make some sort of portable setup so i can remove it when not in use because i really don't want to cut any holes in the dash. What or where do you guys have yours set up. Thanks!

Do a gladiator style center console and add extra gauges and the controls. Maybe put a small cooler in under a padded armrest.

This is what i am going to do to the boat in the future. I want to add a console from the center of the seats to the dash, relocate the throttle/shifter from the drivers right to the center console and put the radio in the center also. I saw a couple of skaters set up like this and it looks great. The only problem is that it is hard for me to get under the deck now. But i think it would look awesome, and my wife and son would be able to throttle. Has anyone modified the back seat to the scout so it can be hinged and used as storage? That is another thing i want to look at doing to add storage space so i don't have to crawl under the deck as much!

The only on that I have seen was "Red Thunder"... In regards to the back seat, mine is hinged so its easy to open and close.. JLAY, do you have the scout with the 300 Merc on it?
