Drivers seat back in radio jeep?

Looking for info regarding the mounting brackets on the back of the drivers seat for a USMC radio jeep? What goes there? There were three "eye bolt" type fasteners attached to a braket on the seat back.
Appears in this Wes photo as a large box on the drivers seat back:

A link to any radio jeep photos would be helpful too.
Thanks for the help.

Wes,
Thanks for the great links. My question is for the smaller box mounted to the driver seat back it self. In the link attached above it is partly visible.
Looked at all the links you listed and did not see another.
Thanks,
Jim

Most USMC M38A1 radio jeeps had very large radio packages that came almost right up to the back of the front seats. This is probably why there are not a lot of photos of the back of the front seats out there.

Here's another web site with a guy who should be able to give you an answer:
