Default please help, who can make this for me?

Im moving my stereo from the dash to the cabin which means there will be a hole the size of a stereo (plus screw holes, 2 on each side). i would like to fill it with a flush mounted GPS, but not so sure im going to find one that flush mounts, doesnt cost a ton, and will fit that area. so im trying to find a company that makes billett stuff, like vent covers and bezels and stuff like that, what i want to have made is a cover plate for the stereo hole and then have them punch the word "sunsation" in the middle of the plate, so that i can mount a LED light behind it, and at night the word sunsation will be lit up, i would greatly appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction. also i dont want the plate to thick, thanks in advance.

is there a gps that is made that can be flush mounted and is around the length of the stereo?

Could easily be done in acrylic. Check with a local plastics shop.

Just find some one at a machine shop that has a CNC Milling machine. They will be able to whip it up in no time.

Just have a "glass man" fill the hole...a few of us have had this done and u would never know it was there...u don't want to cover it with some cobbed up mess that will end up costing more than the fill-in...if u want to cut a hole there later u can and u won't have to go with a unit to fit that hole
