I have a 96 Hatchback, and I put my aftermarket stereo where the cassette would be. I am ordering from Honda the faceplate that covers up the factory stereo hole (the one that is used on the CX hatchback), and then I plan to mount some gauges in that space. I figure I could just make holes in that factory faceplate instead of getting a gauge pod to put on the pillar.

The only problems with this arrangement are:

1. It kinda ruins the use of the cupholders unless you remove the cupholder cover
2. The stereo can be a bit hard to reach that low.
