Truck got cd player robbed. I got some ?'s

So to make a long story short some scumbag stole my cd player out of my truck and of course they weren't gentle about it. Now my dash is all kinds of broken. So my question is where the screws that hold the bezel to the dash, is that a part ot the dash, or is it seperate. It looks to me like its molded into the whole dash. Cause that has the most damage, its completly cracked. Also now my hvac control lights decide to turn off and on when they feel like it. Any words of wisdom are appreciated...

I guess, its the only part that the two screws right above the hvac controls that the bezel has. The bezel is beyond fukced not that. But behind that i think it also holds the hvac controls.

Ouch, I just put mine new one in a week ago and I'm scared someone is going to break in mine. I take the face plate off everytime I'm out of the truck

and I think what you are talking about is molded in there

Probably some illegal alien scumbag knowin that part of the state. I checked in my expo and its molded in. I want to invent a car alarm that if someone enters to try and steal the doors slam shut and lock. That way when I find them in my truck I can serve my own justice.

If your talking about what I circled in the picture below, then I would just jb weld or fiberglass it back on. That brace doesnt support much so I would think JB Weld would be plenty strong and you can do it your self. Not sure about the lights problem...

Yep those are the tabs that are broke. $100 deductible, $1500 in damage, new dash is goin' in etc. And i am getting a new Pioneer DEH 1100MP to replace my stolen Panasonic. I told em i wanted a panasonic but i guess the car audio division is no more as of like two months ago...
