That's just the ticket! I might have to source something similar.

Do you already have a stereo installed below the parcel shelf or in the dash?

How bad can it Be?

I'm putting this in an under dash stereo tray.
What car is that out of? Looks like a great plan. I've got a Vectra C one I was going to fit in a centre console, but think it'll clash with the gearstick.

It's not out a car in particular, it's for people changing from a double din head unit, this fills the gap nicely.
Just google single din cup holder.
I'm going down the Bluetooth route for the sounds, connecting the amp to a Bluetooth speaker with a jack to RCA lead.
I'll then put this into the existing stereo slot in the walnut dash.

I stuck a rear cup holder from a Vectra C under the radio housing of my 30 with a few blobs of silicone sealer.
does the trick and holds 2 full maccies drinks no problem (was a little weary at first though mind 
)
few quid off ebay from a breakers.
I'd get some pics up but I'm at work...
