get some fiber glass, and make a mold of what the old piece looks like, then change the mold to how u want it. or go to a good stereo shop that does custom instalation and either have them do it or ask them how u should do it. dont be afraid to ask your local audio shop for advice or help.

i was thinking of doing the same thing u are.
i got a 5.6" screen, i was gonna move my a/c controls in front of the passenger, my headunit to the lower cubby hole and just fiberglass mold the center console thingie to have a TV in it and everything else just bleh. but i got lazy
maybe ill goto a junkyard and get the spare parts i need and try it out, a lil trial-n-error kidna thing...dont wanna mess up the good one
