Any links or info? I've takeled just about everything.. I should be able to handle a project like this, with the right info and feedback. Otherwise I could end up having a great peice that cracks 3 weeks later. You know what I mean?

i just printed off every picture i could find of a d1 or car pc install and took it into my guy. if you go to a shop, ask to see pictures of their fiberglass work. if they are good at that, then they can handle something simple like a audio surround. if yours is like mine where they used bondo and fiberglass, i doubt that it will crack. that part of mine seems stronger than the rest of the gm part.
check the audio section out, theres a ton of write ups on it.

Here is what I have in my Z06. I wanted DVD ability, but not a slide out screen:
Now, I don't have a removable top, so I could mount the LCD monitor right into the headliner. Here is a link to the rest of the pictures in my album with my stereo.

Good luck!!

here is mine (well version one....versioin two/three is in progress):
and hopefully this will be up in running in the next month or so:
It's not the run of the mill radio, it's a computer. If you are interested in going this route there is more info in the link in my sig.
the how-to is in the c5 audio faq in the audio section. its really a very easy mod, just time consuming. with the abs sludge technique that i mention you will not have to worry about the final product cracking, it actually chemically bonds the lowered divider bar...you'd have to have at it with a hammer to crack it
