Compartment above "Not an Ashtray"

Can someone please help me find this part number, or a place that I can order it from? I searched Honda's eStore, as well as other online Acura parts stores, and can't find it!!! Is it considered the "center console" area? the "chassis"? I don't see it on either of those diagrams.

Anyway, the reason I want it is because I plan on mounting a DVD player inside the compartment, and will have to cut the back off. If I decide to later take the DVD player out and revert back to stock, I don't want to have a compartment I can't use because there's a big hole in the back of it.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Actualy you dont need to cut anything, you can buy the acura factory DVD mounting kit $100, and mount and single din device in there. Do not try to cut the stock box apart and make it fit. I tried this in the past so I could hide my alpine deck and it simply wont fit as the a standard DIN is about 1 inch to long, thus the hinge mechnism on the left hand side has to be cut away. I spend a few hours with a dremel and it simply wont work.

Actually, I found 2 DVD players... one is 3/4 DIN, and the other is 1/2 DIN. I measured both of them up, and they fit inside with a little room to spare. Also, Caz on this board has one of them mounted inside the compartment when he got some headrest units professionally put in, so I know it works. I was actually ready to purchase the MP3 kit until I found those 2 units. Thanks anyway...

Can anyone find the part number? I posted on "another" board about this some time ago, and didn't get any hits either!
