Editing Z31/doubledin php (section)

=== Trimming and Bezel Modification ===

First, I removed my spare bezel and radio mount from the dash. The bottom of the mount was trimmed to make room for the Double-DIN unit. The ashtray area was cut away, and the entire section between the lighter socket and the crossbar under the AC controls was removed. This large opening was later rebuilt with fiberglass.

Using balsa wood strips, I created a backing structure and applied 3-4 layers of chopped fiberglass mat with resin to reinforce the bezel. This adds strength and prevents cracking.
