nothing but trouble

Hello, to start off, I bought this 08 Evo X about 2 months ago used with 16,000 miles on it. Nothing was modded except the audio so I've been trying to fix all the previous owners f-ups. To start, the rear speakers were removed along with the wiring on both sides (who removes the wires?) He attempted to install a nice Alpine CDA-9887 reciever with a crap metra dash kit with gaps all over the place. So I installed the speaker wires, installed new rear speakers (infinitiys), and bought the Scosche dash kit. The kit came in today and I remove the Metra and started to install the Scoshe and guess what????? He removed the factory brackets!!!!!!!!!! So now I have the dash torn apart and no way to install the new Scosche kit. My question is, does anyone know where I can get the factory brackets so I can install this kit???? Any help would be appreciated.

Probably your best bet, or check with a dealer.
