Abstract
A module support bracket for a vehicle instrument panel includes a first module receiving surface defining an internal aperture, the first module receiving surface configured to receive a first module, and a second module receiving surface arranged within the internal aperture on a different plane than the first module receiving surface. The second module receiving surface is configured to receive a second module in a stacked relationship to the first module. The second module is configured to be inserted through an opening in the instrument panel in an installation direction to couple the second module to the second module receiving surface. The first module is subsequently inserted through the opening in the instrument panel in the installation direction to couple the first module adjacent the second module in a compact arrangement.
