Relocating HVAC control

Simple question: besides the larger trim piece around the face, what else do I need to move the A/C controls from the center console to the top slot in the dash (above the stereo)? Cup holders used to be there. I'll be installing a GT3 console soon.

I "don't think" you need anything else. The HVAC controls just sit in there with a couple of screws. I have the radio and HVAC out of my green '99, so I'll take a look and get you pictures when I check on the side skirts down at the shop.
I'm doing the same GT3 console delete on my white "Martini" car, and it all looked pretty simple when I had the radio and HVAC out of that car.
I'll get you HVAC pictures the same time I get the side skirt pics.

All you need is the noted trim piece. The hardest part for me when I moved mine was fishing the wire harness from the lower opening to the upper opening. One of the connectors had to be oriented just right to make the journey through a tight area. With the console delete it should be easier as you will have more room to work.
