The same things that are used in a real case. Metal stand offs. I screwed them into the plexi and then screws get screwed into them.. Sorry no pics... Just look at any pc and you'll see what they are.

Not sure. I got it out of a Ford Explorer and put it in a Ford Ranger. Not sure if it would work in other non Ford vehicles.

It really depends on the wiring necessary...I talk a little about it in my worklog (see my sig).

No, I had manual HVAC controls. It's a major mod to do but it's very sweet.

Dude, if your talking about the EATC it's a major electrical mod! I doubt you can take Ford parts and put them in a Honda or whatever easily. The wiring was very involved and there were also other parts needed as well.

What type of vehicle do you have? If I were you I would search for forums specific to your vehicle.

What type of Honda do you have? Do a search on google for Honda ***** Forums or something like that. That's what I did and I found some sweet sites / forums for Rangers that have a ton of how-to's for all the mods I did.
