'42 Radio install

Hey guys, been feeling a bit crook lately but I thought I'd better do something..... The radio is a Kenwood KDC U449.
I like the Galaxy DX979 CB radio.... nice and compact, where to put it though ? I think the dash will look too ' busy' with another radio in it, maybe under the dash foward of the gearstick.
Here's a couple of photos,
Steve.

How about in the glovebox? That way it's put of sight until needed.

Gidday Gary, the area behind the dash where the glove box should be is full of A/C unit..... with the hoses on, the lid will be lucky to close.
