Default New RFA reciever placement

i have a 2000 corvette and just did the 01-04 receiver upgrade. I can not seem to get the new receiver mounted to the old bracket. Does anybody have any ideas?

On my '99 I used wire ties (zip ties). Been fine for about 6 years now.

Good luck.

I removed the antenna and board from the old receiver box. modded the old receiver housing for the new board (I did use a zip tie to hold it in position in the old housing) then put everything back into the original retainer

Clever... now when you go to Bloomington for a Survivor Award you better hope they don't open that box and see your zip tie mod...
