Digital climate control??? H/U upgrade???

Any luck for owners of the 96-99 taurus equipped with the digital climate control for a radio upgrade???

there is no way to do it other than mounting your head unit in the glovebox or console.

I figured that but I saw @ an SHO Forum someone had made a custom mount for a H/U w the digital controls.

Now If I custom make a mount for my car witch radio wire adapter do I need to install a H/U
