Speaker and Stereo Overhead Console Housing Compatible with Golf Cart

In this review of the Speaker and Stereo Overhead Console Housing, the bottom line is simple: this empty console is for DIY installers who want a durable, customizable overhead mounting solution for a golf cart, UTV, Polaris RZR or boat. The reviewer finds the biggest reason to buy is the reinforced mounting design and included double sided tape, which addresses a common weak point on cheaper consoles by offering a 1' lip and many more mounting points than typical kits. It is an empty shell, so expect to cut speaker and radio openings yourself and to supply speakers and a stereo.

Key Features

• Reinforced mounting lip: The 1' lip around the console provides extra area for fasteners so the unit can be secured at multiple points for long-term durability over rough terrain.
• Includes double sided tape: The kit ships with adhesive tape to add another layer of support for the console and components during bumpy rides.
• High-grade ABS construction: The textured ABS plastic shell resists weather and wear while keeping the unit lightweight for overhead mounting.
• Custom cut openings: The empty shell requires users to cut their own speaker and radio openings, enabling fit for a single din radio and speakers up to 6.5' in size.
• Ergonomic angles: Speakers are angled toward the driver and passenger and the radio area is angled down for easier viewing and listening once installed.

Who It's For

The console is best for hands-on installers, hobbyists, and small shop fabricators who want a flexible overhead housing for audio upgrades on golf carts, UTVs, Polaris RZR models, and marine craft. Because this product is an empty shell, it appeals to buyers who plan to install a standard single din radio and up to 6.5' speakers, and who have tools and skills to cut custom openings.

Those who should look elsewhere include buyers who want a ready-to-use system with pre-cut holes, included speakers or a radio, or someone who prefers a plug-and-play factory-style assembly. If you prefer a fully finished kit with professional cutouts, this empty console will require extra time and work.

Pros & Cons

Cons

• Arrives as an empty shell with no cutouts, so the buyer must cut openings for speakers and radio.

Our Verdict

This overhead console housing is a practical value for DIY installers who need a strong, customizable mounting solution for audio in a golf cart, UTV or boat. The reinforced 1' lip and included double sided tape make it more secure than typical 3-point kits, but buyers should be prepared to cut their own speaker and radio openings and supply components separately.
