Here is the 360 in the fram I made for it. This fram will only support the 360 after it is attached by screws or glue from the back. Otherwise it keeps the unit upright and level.

360 install in Eagle Talon DSM , Resin applied to fleece for fiberglassing.
360 Fleece gets stretched to the edges of the former airbag pocket
The first layer of resin was applied to the fleece. I used about 10 ounces here. I mixed 20 ounces but the stuff hardens quickly. I applied one layer of fiberglass matt and it reallt roughed up the surface. All thats left to do is apply resin to the overlapping edges of the opening. Even though they will get trimmed off in the end, they will make sure that each time the enclosure is test fitted that it sits in the same exact way.360 Fleece gets stretched to the edges of the former airbag pocket and hot glued in place to the painters tape.. The dash has been layered over with blue painters tape. The fleece was stapled to the MDF backing. The red lines are a tracing around the xbox 360 before it was removed for these steps.
Here is a dry test fit. In this picture I am trying to see where the 360 needs to be inside the dash. I descided to install it 1 inch higher than seen below so it is more centered.
