Re: Double Din Head unit used? Who has put in a double din?

I have a pioneer double din AVIC radio/nav system in my
Camaro. It needed a little cutting of the stock cover plate, but not too bad.
I think it came out great. I'll get pictures if you're interested.

Yes they do, but it will hide the heater controls.

You can just fold it down when you want to change the heat/AC? and then move it back up could you not?
