XJ VHF Upper-Mount

XJ VHF Upper-Mount
Started off 4 weeks ago with a plan to mount the VHF within the center console. After a couple of weeks of staring at the console I finally pulled the plug on that idea, there just isn't anywhere I can put it that won't get in my way.
So after seeing a bunch of nice YJ/TJ/JK/everything but an XJ mounts, finally came up with an idea for an upper mount that will appease my love of hidden wiring. And let me use the mainly free stuff I have laying around.
Used some 3/16 x 4" machine screws with washers and nuts
Cover plate from a 6x6 electrical JB (CSA approved!!)
Two 1x5 Deck ties from HD
Drill and 1/4" bit
Removed the sunglasses / garage door opener holder doors, nothing else has been removed.
Pics are pretty self explanatory, especially to a Cherokee owner! If you have any questions let me know.

My main concern was keeping it looking as stock as possible, and since all of my electronics luckily work well, thought I might as well utilize it.
