you just need the JL Cleansweep
don't think I'm changing the head unit anytime soon, I have Comand..
if you do change the headunit, just go ahead and change the speakers too for better quality sound

Great job, you saved yourself a few bucks vs. body shop The holes are so small, it seems it would be a pretty easy DIY.

With all your posts telling people to ditch front plates, it wasn't that hard to figure out, especially looking up a few posts at your latest pics and comparing.
