Yep, the depth is almost there for a double din but the issue I found was that the sides narrow as you go back so it is not the same dimensions in the opening as the rear.

I think if you want a double din then you need to mount it where the stock radio is and if you want additional items (HKS Camp II or something) then a simple screen up top will fit easily.

yeah might as well double the screen use for the navi and FI gauges and keep the lower area dedicated for music. i always hated having to switch over to the audio screen just for basic functions when youre using the nav to get somewhere. idk FI and doubledins are both things i cant afford right now anyways so guess it wont be bothering me anytime soon
