Nice score on the bezel - and yes, go buy a lottery ticket too.

here is a suggestion... you just saved about 175 dollars so you should send that Bezel off to Dennis at Double D Mods and get it turned into a double din Bezel and put a Nav, blue tooth CD/DVD Ipod system into your car..

Just found one today for $25 as well! It does have about a 3" crack to the right of the shifter hole but it's fixable. At the very least it could be recovered and you would never know!
