The Conversation Pit
This is where EVERYTHING else goes. No subject is too mundane. How's the weather in your area? Did your kid cut his first tooth? Really, what do you think about the President? And don't get me started on Cummins and Duramaxes. Have at it!

Hmmm, I'll get Corey's attention to see if she has any ideas.

Nobody with a KR and CTS with this issue? That Murphy is a S.O.B.

Only thing I can think of is to move the mounting tabs on the dash pod down. All of the pictures I've seen of the CTS is on trucks without that handle. You could change to a guage mount pillar that has clearance for the CTS but you'd lose your handle.
...or move the handle to under the roof like on the chevys. Then you'd still have a handle, CTS and either a guage mount or regular pillar.

I just modified the adapter plate, check that, cut the tabs off the plate, used 3M 2X sided tape and made it work. Looks good, just will not be able to use the video in port since I had to move the CTS down 3/4" or so to get it to clear the handle. BTW, I can use my mirrors so a reverse camera isn't all that necessary!

Good deal, but you could always drill a hole for the cable to go through if you ever installed a camera.
