For the finish touch, I just stuck a black rubber band hair thingy that holds pony tales, turned out surprising nice.
You have any pics? I want to do this.

Thanks.

I did the same mount except I actually ran the wire between the head unit and the cubby. I can secure it with double stick tape but haven't done it yet.

I got a black rubber hair band on the inside and outside of the batwing plate. you have to look super close but it is to cover up the the line of the cut on the batwing itself.
