Introduction
Installation is very straight forward. The laser cut and CNC formed bracket attaches to the tray located above the dash using four machine screws, included in the hardware kit. The four .25" holes used must be drilled by the user in the OEM tray. Should you choose to return to stock, the OEM rubber mat inside the tray conceals the holes. Installation instructions are included and the video below shows the process on an F-150, nearly identical.

Installation
1. Remove the Center Speaker Cover
- Use a trim tool or your hands to remove the dash tray. It’s held in place by spring-loaded clips.
- Pry carefully at the front and back until the clips release.
- If any clips come loose, set them aside for reinstallation later.
2. Prepare for Mount Installation
- Place the tray on a stable surface with padding underneath to avoid damage.
- Position the dash mount bracket on the tray, ensuring proper alignment.
3. Mark and Drill Holes
- Mark the first two mounting holes using a tool like a punch or marker.
- Drill pilot holes with a small bit (⅛-inch) and then enlarge them to ¼-inch. Ensure the tray is at room temperature to prevent cracking the plastic.
- Place the bracket over the drilled holes and loosely bolt it in place.
4. Mark and Drill Remaining Holes
- With the first two bolts loosely installed, mark the remaining two hole locations.
- Remove the bracket and drill the remaining holes, following the same process.
5. Install the Bracket
- Attach the bracket using the provided hardware: washers, screws, and nuts.
- Tighten all bolts, ensuring the mount is level and secure.
6. Optional: Attach Accessories to Mount
- Before reinstalling the dash tray, attach any accessories (e.g., RAM mounts) to the dash mount bracket.
7. Reinstall the Dash Tray
- Press the tray into place, ensuring the outside and 2 center retaining clips snap securely.
