Accessories in new Hilux

I know there is a big long thread on accessories for a current model Hilux but I can't find a solution to my problem there.
I picked up a silver, SR5, Extra Cab V6 petrol styleside yesterday.
I thought I would spend the weekend tranferring some gear from my old truck - trouble is I can't fit anything.

Can someone suggest how to fit a Tait 2020 UHF (larger radio), Navman street pilot, Lowrance IFinder Pro GPS and Nokia car kit?

There's just no room for anything!

Is there any after market solutions for mounting accessories?
The salesman suggested there were replacement panels that had mounting solution for the dash... I think a tall story!
If anyone has mounted similar gear can they post a pic to give me some ideas?

Thanks heaps.

Hi dave, I had the same problems when i picked up my 06 hilux in April (it just had it's 40, 000 k service thats expensive..) my car kit for my Nokia 3315 attaches inside the right side of the glove box hole .attached with counter sunk screws and the glove box closes fine mu Garmin street pilot sits in the middle of the dash, tx 3400 mounted under the ashtray although yours in probably bigger the uhf is held in with double sided velcro and has been fine so far..
