I am wondering if anyone happens to have any knowledge or experience on mounting a Federal Q into the grille of a Ford C8000. My engine (a 1985) originally came with a grille mounted CP100 which I have removed in hopes of retrofitting the mounting hole to accept the Q instead. The Q I purchased came off of a slightly newer (87 I believe) Ford C-Series so I know this is doable. The main body of the siren fits well, my struggle is in fitting the brake solenoid and making sure it is securely a-fixed to the truck. I have not been able to find any images of how these were originally mounted in this type of truck so hoping the hive mind will be able to help! I am attaching a couple shots of the hole where the CP100 was mounted as it exists right now, however I realize it may need to be altered.
