Youd probably have to get creative with fiberglass like I did with my 94 camry

Pre-Install stages.

Thats a great idea too. Much less work to do. You probably will have to pay for it but it shouldnt be that much, im sure there are some on ebay or something floating around too.

Cerry do you have rhe finished product pics??i was thinking about doing this to my 93 camry.but i dont like the glove box head unit or arm rest wouldnt work unless you bought one that can mount sideways.not a big fan of any of that,but the stock monitor look is 100 times better than the flip out units.
