The only (very mild) thing that I do not like about the installation is that the face of the OEM CD tray is designed to fit flush with the similar console insert below. So, by adhering the aluminum gauge plate onto the face of this tray, this gauge panel now sits proud of the (in my case) face of the stereo equalizer controls below.

Thanks - DM
