after more thought the magnum 257 comes to mind. I have seen an in-dash mounted radio in a post before and I think they had an issue with the route for the ac/heating being near or behind the hole. If thats the case the radio won't like the heat. I know I had to move my G Lee from off the middle hump to under the dash because it would get a little warm. If you run a radio in that spot you may want to consider airflow.
