It would be a lot more visible to thieves for one. And you would have to do a massive amount of fabrication to put it in the cubby to get it to mount soundly.
I wouldn't recommend it. You'd be spending a lot of effort for something that just screams, "Steal me". |

If you put it in the cubby, seems like it would be less visible to me. If you kept the door anyway. I really dislike the whole cubby thing and am trying to figure out how I could get a navi set up in there to make it look less cheap. Once I get my Z that is. One beautiful day.

This and modifying the AC ducks is not something I would recommend.
