Question Missing mounts for head unit?

Hey so I'm going about putting new speakers, amp, and head unit into my car and when I pulled out my old head unit there was just a big gaping hole with nothing to mount my new sleeve and din pocket into. I have a new single din unit that I'm trying to install along with a standard din pocket. The previous owner rigged up a Nissan double din Bose head unit into my car for some reason and it looks like in the process he scrapped the stock mounting hardware. Can anyone tell me what I am missing, or figure out a way to mount everything?

that center piece thats missing is part of the dash,u can prob. get a thin piece of metal and put it from behind and drill 2 small holes on either side and use 2 small screws to hold a center division onto the dash,or u can get rid of the din pocket and come from the bottom up with a piece of plastic and make it a single din..good luck,shouldn't be to hard

Yeah that's sort of what I figured I would have to do. I have lots of thin aluminum to work with, just I wasn't sure how the stock radio mounted. I have done lots of engine work, but never anything with a radio so this is new territory. Thanks
