That's a clean face, new model yes? Is that a flip out screen? Does 717 read MP3s now? You should put a pocket in that mesh screen space. If you just cover it up with a black plastic piece, the center console will look too plain. Trust me, I tried it. Nice pics though

I just noticed, you have the'92 with the green climate control display. First time I've seen that in an SC.

That mesh screen must be great for radiating heat, I know my receiver is burning hot after an hour trip.

do-luck sc I'm not sure what I'm going to do with that space ... or if ill just leave the mesh, it would be nice to have a pocket there though like lex400sc said, but no head problems this way (I killed my kenwood 815 with heat)

I think my kenwood 717 is a 2001 model but no it doens't read mp3's.
it does have the flipping face which looks clean closed I think

damn lex400sc I didn't think anyone would notice but Your right..... when I replaced my climate control lights I just left the green sleeves on the 3 lights.

Here is a pic of the amber display on my car. You can also see that annoying rear light indicator caused by my '94 tail lights

Does that mean you can just change the colour of the bulb sleeves in the air-con display?
