Tip for stereo alignment

I was having an impossible time aligning the stereo so it wouldn't catch on the dash surround while opening for inserting a disc. I finally walked away from it (from my last post) and started fresh tonight. After looking at everything, it became apparent that connecting the stereo to the piece of dash AND THEN putting the whole assembly in was the answer. The stereo doesn't have to be screwed into the old holes, and then aligned for the dash piece. The after market stereo frame connects to the stereo (and the surrounding part of the dash), and you can just insert the whole thing together. This would have been nice to know. Now you do if you didn't (like me).
