I had removed mine in place of my EQ. Just know that the unit will not sit flush.

3" is way too much the max should be about one inch or so. Get it professionally done.

Nice and clean, I like it. I dont like so many components, but it was done very nicely. However, I would have probably gone with something a bit more color matching.

is it possible to put a single din in place of the audio controls? the section(power/volume/seek/track) in between the nav and the ashtray.
