Default Swapping Climate Control Unit Spot

I'm looking to remove my "CD Holder", buy a lower position cubby, and swap my climate control unit into the old spot. Basically going from this (not my car but same layout):



To this (even have a 997 **** on the way!):



Can anyone comment on the requirements for this swap? Will it slide in fine up there? Is there a faceplate necessary for the top spot? If so does someone have a part number?

Thanks!

I think all you need is the "cubby hole" purchased separately.....should be a painless mod....just be careful re-routing the cables

Just do a search all the details r easy to find. The climate control was not designed for that slot and u need to modify the face plate and the mounts. The lower cubby can be purchased. Its not that hard to figure out.
