Thanks. The screen was going to be recessed anyway to try and avoid some direct sunlight, though i had to angle it in a way that its recessed more at the bottom than its at the top. Thats because of the angle of the dash, its jutting out more in bottom in the car and i had to counter that.

I have Bondo body filler with which i will fill in the gaps and sand it to shape before i am ready for paint. I may have found someone to paint it, a friend knows someone who does the paintwork for Performance Cars and is highly recommended.

The labels are stickers and pop right off. I also have extras in case i would have screwed up .

cheers.
