Re: Overhead dash
i think he is referring to the shelf/console/storage compartment that mounts right above your line of sight. many people have a CB mounted in them.

Re: Overhead dash
I had an 85 jimmy that had one of those with visors mounted to it. It came stock, so you might be able to find one and modify it to fit.
