I had posted a big long blah about what might be broken.. then I looked at the pics with an editing program (too dark for my monitor).. I see the hooking piece that you are missing.. don't they include permanent faceplate mounting screws in the box?? That could be an option..

I haven't tested it yet, but I couldn't find a host to get s good shot of the 2nd pic.
I had it in high res and u can see the crack, so im assuming the display in general is broken, even if the back can be fixed.

The peice snapped at the same spot and wouldn't make a contact.

A friend of mine had the same problem with his pioneer deck, the face didn't mount properly to the deck anymore, and the display keeps blacking out.
He wound up getting a new faceplate from a dealer, not sure if it was covered under warantee or not.

The second problem, is that the display actually has a tiny crack, in the picture, liike at the bottom right corner of the DISPLAY and u can see the crack, and it kinda looks like it goes onto the screen, but u can only see it in a certain light, and I couldn't really get a good pic of that. But you can see the crack in the picture.
So basically it looks like the faceplate is pretty much un fixable, and I need to get a new one, which is ok. I plan on trying to get a newer 6500 plate, wonder if it'll work?
