Default aftermarket radio for ES 330 2006

I was in Best Buy this afternoon and I was told by the tech installer that he could not install an aftermarket radio in my ES 330 without some additional fabrication work because standard aftermarket radios do not fit correctly into the opening on the dash. The tech recommended that I find a used Lexus radio instead. Two questions -- (1) Anyone successfully installed an aftermarket radio? (2) If I need to get a used 330 ES radio, where is the best place to find one.

You can purchase the dash frame piece from a Lexus Dealership or this popular one here:

You can take this part to him and he can install and standard double din unit.

The ES had the option to come with a NAV screen, we are simply buying the frame to go around it!
