Default Rear unsupported??? Mounting a DIN radio in a Dodge RAM

Hi,

I just installed a DIN Pioneer radio in my son's Dakota and had the same
problem. The front of the radio had four mounting holes
in the front bracket. I couldn't devise anyway to support the back of the
radio (without a whole lot of work) but with just the 4 screws in the front
it was pretty stable, the Pioneeer wasn't as heavy as the factory radio.
What you can do if you want to go to the trouble is make a shelf that
attaches to the bottom of the radio and cut the legs the length to where the
back of the radio sits at
the proper height, but there's really no way to attach the bottom of the
bracket to the dash.

Hope this helps.

I am going to mount a normal DIN radio in a 1999' Dodge RAM 1500. I
bought a Scosche installation kit from walmart. It appears that it has
a front mounting bracket, but absolutely nothing to support the
rear. Because the opening for the radio is larger than the radio, it
seems that the rear of the radio will be unsupported. Is that true,
and if so, how can I make the radio mounted in a more stable fashion.
