The origional owner of my car removed the radio for who knows what reason. Anyway, the giant gaping area where the raio used to be is simply covered by a piece of cardboard that has been screwed in. I am going to get a new center console surround but is there anything that I can use to fill the area where the old radio was?

 

A new radio maybe

 

oops, don't I feel dumb. I forgot to mention (silly me) that there is another radio in the car now. That's why it didn't make any sense. It's not any better of a radio either. No CD no extra's, nothing. So there is a radio but there is still a large part of the console that is covered by cardboard. It's probably about 4" tall and about a console wide....

 

I don't even have a radio! I covered the gaping hole with a piece of flimsy pexiglass painted with black primer on one side. Screwed into the back of the console. It really looks a bit to shiny, but i figure at some point I will be putting something there, and its a good temp solution. BTW I use my laptop to play mp3's which go dircetly to an amplifier. So no need for a radio here.

 

you can prolly go to a stereo store and buy a stereo install kit to make up for lost space

 

Look up plastics shops in the yellow pages. They come out, measure it, cut it to spec, and voila!

Good luck

 

well, that area DOES make a great place for guages.. maybe 2-3 guages down in that area...

I've still got radio, but once my engine gets pulled and installed into my other car, this car is gettin' STRIPPED! yeah baby

1fast2 Is (or was selling) Gauge Panels that filled that void awhile still allowing you to fit a deck In their. Your choice came In the Gauges being on top of the deck, vice-versa, 2 or 3 Gauge Holder.

 

Best Buy sells kits to cover the area up...it costs $27
