Factory Radio/CD Mount Question
 

I just purchased my 2000 Civic SE used from a dealer auction and later on I noticed that the Honda radio and the storage tray underneath were just jammed into the big rectangular hole. When I pulled them out, there are no brackets inside to mount the factory radio - they were just stuck in the hole loose like that. It was obvious that the previous owner had some sort of aftermarket stuff in there because the wiring harness was butchered and then rebutchered to connect back to the factory deck.

When I look inside there are no apparent mounting points that I could see where even the factory brackets used to be. I've looked up diagrams and there seems to be a LH & RH bracket that mounts to the radio but what that brackets mounts to, I can't figure out... I even went to the Honda dealership and had them print me off a parts listing but even that was confusing. They would be happy to order me numerous overly expensive brackets screws etc. but even the dealer couldn't describe how it went together or what exactly I would need...

I just want basic radio & CD - nothing fancy and I like the stock look however I don't know what parts are missing from inside the dash to mount the factory player. Anyone have any better diagrams or pictures of what is supposed to be in there??

Any help would be appreciated.
