Its the actual cassette player, i just gutted it and used the body and the top metal part to trim out a piece for the face of it. and how i attached it to the face is i trimmed the plastic face of the cassette but left the outer edge, as shown by the red rectangle.

with the switches i got, there is a prong on the side and installing them vertical wouldnt work. with there being no top to the cassette player i gutted. it worked upside down. and of course the 2 sideways had no problems.
