I searched around and saw all of those posts before I made my post, but still, my car is funky as hell because in the same area that the stereo goes, there is also a box that some of the air conditioner controls are located, so it gets in the way with screws and such, because it has to attach to the same brackets as the stereo, plus the stupid plastic empty tray that goes underneath the stereo.

If I start cutting I'd have to cut up the dashboard plastic that goes around the stereo, and it would look like crap. And I hate to think of what I would have to do when I go to sell the car.
