It's as far back as it can go. I finally pulled the stereo out to match the CB ... I'm thinking of fiberglassing a new bezel that allows enough space for the CB and stereo properly.

Here it is for now:

The deck is secured using a double DIN bracket, and the CB is secured using the two screws that hold the bezel in place.
If/when I fiberglass a new bezel, I'll try to 'glass in proper mounts for the stereo and CB.
