Radio install, How to tackle this mess Options

[erwindv]

Trying to install the radio that I recently bought.


Unfortunately the previous owner cut out a part of the dash to get some gaugs in.




Anybody an idea how to tackle this mess and to firmly install the radio in the existing opening?

Under "normal" conditions, are there any accessories that I should have to install?


Thx

If you can't source the correct speaker connectors, banana plugs will work.

You can attach the faceplate with double sided tape, then use the rear attachment point to affix the radio to the bracket on the car's firewall. That should be adequate to keep it in place. Alternatively, cut another plate of metal to use as a backing behind the cut up dash face.
