Default Center Console Delete Help Needed

I have read up on multiple posts how to do the center console delete, but I still have a question regarding the current configuration of my A/C module that may cause issues. I need to move the A/C from the center console to the upper console where the cupholders are. However, the trim piece that is currently around the A/C module won't fit the upper console. I've posted pics below to show the issue I'm running into. Where do I find a trim piece that fits? Additionally, I will need to relocate the seat heater switches to the upper console as well, but apparently that isn't that difficult.

Sunset has the trim piece required - but you may have to settle for black unless your interior color is a 'standard' hue.

what is on your headlights? Did you do a write up with details?

oh - sorry A.D.D.
awe, yea... buy the trim piece from Sunset, call and ack what colors are available (Savanna) since you dont have any other accent colors, otherwise it will look like a large black blob in the middle of your dash. Also if they dont have it, call one of the pre-owned parts places like DCauto, and I bet they can find one for cheap - I had them send me a part and it was in perfect condition

Marlon/ivangene, many thanks for the advice. I'll contact Sunset and perhaps one of the places like DCauto.

As for what is on my headlights, I used to have Lamin-X film for track duty, but I found it too difficult to see at night. Now I have clear film over them.

Thanks again

Cool - I for one am interested in your impressions on the 'delete' since I am considering it myself.
