To install, or not to install.....

So, I have decided to relocate my stereo like I had mentioned in the last thread. I might have found a guy to do my fiberglass work. If not I am just going to fabricate soemthing out of a mixture of wood and paint or the CF fabric stuff. Now that I am doing this, there will be a big gaping hole in my dash where my stereo used to be. Do I:
a) leave as is (the big gaping hole)
b) throw in a couple guages (keep in mind I am basically all stock)
c) put in some kind of light with a design to come on when my amp comes on
d) put a lighted honda emblem for a red line indicator?

I know some of those options are kind of cheesy but hey, why not? I know I could go with a TV but I really dont have the money for one nor is my head unit a DVD player...So tell me what you guys think....

hows come you want to re-locate in the first place? i thought u wanted to relocate because you had something to put up above. if i were you i would leave it alone keep it clean looking untill you have something to fill the void.

thats just me though.

I'm with jon. Or leave it up top. Seems like a huge waste to me.

The problem is because of the slant that honda put on the dash, I cant see my radio display during the day. Ive thought about just tinting the windows, but Mississippi has tint laws, and I am as dark as I can get.

the 96-98 is and easy task to relocate...and they have a block off plate to cover where hole in the climate control...i relocated mine...to make it look like i didnt have a cd player when people look in or are walking by...

im also with Tenchu and Jon...dont do it until you are sure what you wanna do with the original spot....

Mod an oem block off plate to fit in there if you must move it

If you're going to move it just make a blockoff for up top. Will give you a place to mount gauges later.
