Double DIN Fitment in 1st Gen.

[jayhawk2014]

Is there any double din headunits that actually fit in a first gen? The diagrams I have seen show it as a double at the face but it shrinks down to single in the back. So is the headunit space big enough for a double din or do I have to bust out the saw and cut away at precious Expy?

Btw I was thinking about a Pioneer PVH-P2300DVD if that helps.

this isnt the one i was looking for but it shows that you have to do some trimming, but with a little patience you can make it fit.

Go to www.Critchfield.com and use their database to see what fits.

And actually, most of the units that will fit, Crutchfield will tell you they don't. www.sonicelectronix.com seems to be a better site for actual fitting information.

I put my Pioneer 3200BT in my '01 in less than an hour (start to finish) with the help of a Dremel and my 11 y/o son. Any cutting you do is well behind the dash and it is not difficult.

It's not that hard to fit, just be gentle
Mine fit fine
