Question 96 disco center dash and stereo

I just picked up a 1996 Discovery Se7 , it was broken into before i go it and they demolished the center dash where the stereo goesthe bracket where the screws go in the middle is broken off and the part of the dash just hangs.

And is all I will need to hook up a aftermarket cd play aside from the install kit is a cable harness? I found a Metra 70-1786 harness is this what I need?

don't need a dash kit, they don't actually make one for our trucks, they do make a universal trim piece that can help flush it up but most people just install it as is. yes the 70-1786 harness is right and a european antenna adapter (non amplified, standard VW).

as for the dash I am not sure I can help but my suggestion would be to repair the old one, bondo, fiberglass resin, epoxy, ABS plastic. I can give some pointers as I have a decent amount of fabrication experience. maybe if your willing to put in the effort and money you can even modify the factory piece to adapt a double din unit! well it was just an idea. anyways maybe a picture to see how bad it is 5then maybe I can give some better advice.
