Here is my 2002 Cav dash.

The heater controls were left in the stock location.






If you do not know what you are doing, it can be difficult. If you don't know, find someon who does to teach you the basics. It will save you $$ in the end.

wow this stuff looks good, can you guys tell me how to start learning? Maybe some progressive step-by-step pics or tutorials?

I have an 04 cavalier. T
he A/C controls are on the bottom, and an aftermarket radio in the middle.

I would LOVE to keep the A/C controls in the same spot, move the head unit to the top like you guys have, and put a flush LCD screen in there (I already have a bunch of screens..)

OH, NOW i see what you guys did. the A/C vents are gone! Neat! Does that effect the air conditioners effectiveness? It's really hot where I live...

How secure is all that equipment?

My car was recently broken into, my old dash got a little ripped up. It'd be perfect for a fiberglass project like this. But my biggest fear is that someone breaking in again, and ripping my electronics off

Thanks for any help!

mine are in there good!!!, my buddy did mine! he used a soldering gun with a funky tip on it melted away the plastic that was needed to remove then fitted things in the screen is a headrest screen and he mounted the bracket in then melted the plastic around it to hold it in then fibreglass filled it then bodyfilled to smooth it out, for the vents he accually used the 2 vents to make a bracket for the dvd player and then fibreglass filled it then bodyfilled the top to make it smooth! then primers painted etc... hope this helps
