They have an overhead for the radio and I think they have separate speaker containers; however I don't think they have the exact part you are describing.

Call Brother's Trucks. There is one in their online catalog. I think they were discontinued, though. I think I want one too. Let us know what you find out.

To my knowledge it is no longer produced. Its been about a year since they stopped production. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Brothers still shows it in their catalog. $229.00 plus delivery, now I just have to decide if thats what I really want. Thanks

From what I understand this company bought the molds and is reproducing the headliner consoles. They are asking $249.00. Here is a link:

They are advertised in the latest issue of Classic Trucks magazine that I just got last week. www.dashtop.com or 800-349-3274. It's advertised as the Highliner as mentioned and lists applications to fit our trucks.

from what i ahve heard these arent very ideal, for the sole fact that u get one speaker right at your ear and you mainly hear that over the other speakers, you just dont get the whole experience of your music if you get these ive never heard one so i cant be certain. If it was me i would just buy an underdash kit for $20 and if it turns out you dont like it your only ouy 20 dollars, i did this and really liek it
