Custom interior mount

Hi folks,

My first post here,

I own a UK Rover 200 and i am installing a car computer, now, i've run into issues where the car only has a single din stereo slot but i want to keep a normal stereo (for cds, radio and amp) installed as well as the computer.

I have thought about using the space where the central air vents are, but this would require a custom surround - ideally i would have a surround/mount made which will host any DIN unit, what i'm looking for is people/companies within the UK who will manufacture a surround/mount at low cost for me - i'm not all that handy when it comes to things like that (if its electronics, i'm your man).

Interior of a Rover 200 is here, i'm not sure if it was ever sold in the US http://www.austin-rover.co.uk/images/r20025_07.jpg

Any and all help appriciated

why not relocate the headunit to the glove box? That way you could take the original DIN spot for a fold out screen.

The original din slot is too low to get a good angle on a screen really, plus i would need to be able to adjust volume and so on while im driving or when not using the computer.
