I have the Rough Country Overhead Molle panel that runs between the driver and passenger I would mount mine to that.

I have the 575 mounted to a molle panel along the center console, passenger side. Great spot, doesn't impede anything. Got the mic, so all controls and display are in it.

I used this for my MXT575 GMRS radio, I think I got the model correct, it's the 50 watt, under the dash, behind the glove box. Used the same mount you have. Once you get it installed it works very well. I'm not as pliable as I once was so it took me a couple times to get it right. Also working upside down and backwards didn't help. On the other bronco website there is a detailed thread to install this. I don't remember the guys name, but he was very helpful and answered a few of my questions. Getting the wires installed was very easy, and I installed the antenna on the drivers side cowling. It works well, but if I had to do it over i would get a 10 watt handheld GMRS and install a good CB radio in the truck.

I made my own mount for up under the dash. installed an RG6 extension in the lower cubby to plug the Mic into and used the Ghost antenna mounted as high as I could at the top of the A pillar on the side of my light mount....
