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 |

I would get a new thin steel plate lasercut with the DIN opening for the radio. Then bend the pieces of the dash that are molested into shape, make a few small tack welds to attach the new plate or just expoxi it in place and cover it with a fresh piece of basketweave and then go ahead and install the radio.
