I have to agree with Sux on this one. And I know you say it is temporary, but there is usually nothing so permanent as a temporary install. If I were you I would give Tim Baillie at HZEMALL a call about the install.

Unless he bought that new, which I doubt as it's not the current body style, no way he paid $60K for it. Maybe half, depending on mileage and condition. Nice car though. A good friend of my wife's has a manual version that's exactly the same.
Next, I have a pet peeve with pop out screens that cover up essential elements on the dash that you should always have "immediate" access to.
Then......... if you want to DIY-er it all, you have come to the rite place. Just make sure you don't mind getting your hands dirty, willing to take some risks to try ideas outside of your box of thinking (!!!), that you have a good plan/design before touching any of the gear or pulling out any tools, have cash to spend to do it rite with the rite materials........... and on and on......... and you'll end up with possibly something as nice as the car is. And I'll agree, what's there rite now......... *ACK*
Here's a little tid-bit. A lot of people on this board have just about seen it all and heard it all. A lot of us are in the industry and/or have judged almost everything under the sun on the competition circuit. What really impresses us old timers ( and some young-ins too)is something done well with a lot of thought and safety incorporated into the design and execution.
