not the right forum. You might get better luck posting in another section.

Thanks for the help guys. I opted to keep my factory under dash unit and deleted the exterior part and then made my own plate out of sheet metal and covered it back up. and the best part is that I never once took the dash assembly apart or pulled the unit from the car.
