Jeff - you've inspired me to mod my existing setup. I currently have the gauges mounted on the bottom, and am using a home-modified Crutchfield radio install kit to mount my HU & gauges. I still have my stock HU mounting brackets, so this should work for me too. One question though - can you elaborate on how you secured the front panel to the HU brackets? If I understand correctly, you bent boths sides of the panel back 90* (at the lines), then screwed them to the HU brackets using some plastic stand-offs to fill the gaps?
Only problem I know I'm going to have doing this mod is getting the antenna to connect to my HU in the lower location. As it is, the JVC head unit I have doesn't have the "pigtail" type antenna connector, so I have less cable slack to work with - it just makes it as-is. Will probably need to find/make a 3~6 inch antenna patch cable.
