[QUOTE="crea78, post: 865647, member: 560463"] Before I begin, I've had my Alpine CDA-9833 HU in my car for the past year. The mounting kit for my car ('98 Civic) had the Alpine flushed mounted in the dash where you couldn't see any exposed surface. Yesterday, I took my car into a local car audio shop to be worked on, and the faceplate is no longer flush mounted like it was before. I told the shop about this and how it use to be flushed in the dash. The salesman told me there isn't a way to get the faceplate back where it use to be, and that the pins from the mounting kit is securely connected with the HU. My question is, can I place a piece of black foam around the HU in order to make the appearance look better that what it currently is now. I can still use press the buttons on the HU, but it does look sort of akward being at an angle. [IMG]http://gallery.caraudio.com/vg/1/9/8/8/0/HU.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
