With enough money time and ingenuity anything can be put into the car up to and including a grand piano. But would you want to. Are you going to watch DVD's and drive the car? If so stay away from me. You can up grade the audio system in an almost infinite number of ways.

I've heard that even with the single-din flip up monitors there's not enough clearance since it does sit so far back. That being said, I've never seen it done or tried to do it myself so if you figure out a way to do it, props to you!

I think I hate Best Buy more than all of you combined, so no worries about offending me here! On a side note- no, that will not fit unless you are wanting to cut a hole in the dash and mount it there. On a second side note- you guys can msg me if you find something you like and I can see what kind of a discount I can get you...

jagg · 06-24-2008, 09:26 AM

Hi Sxy,

SXY_S2K · 06-24-2008, 09:29 AM

LOL @ Jagg. If you can haul your butt over here this weekend, I'll make you Ribs, AND give you Beer!
(yes Ribs and Beer need to be capitalized. They are very important in life)

None for me SXY... sniffle....

Dr. Jimbo · 06-24-2008, 11:06 AM

The vehicle fitment chart on Best Buy's website says it does NOT fit. I guess that's where a Dremel tool comes in handy.

kgf3076 · 06-24-2008, 11:50 AM

Of course it'll fit...first get a 10 pound sledge hammer, put the top down, put the DVD/Radio/refrigerator/stove unit in front of the radio door and then start a fast downward swing...should fit in two or three swings of the hammer....

That's how I got my toaster oven/hd tv/shower installed. Took me 4 swings though....but I was using a 5 pounder so maybe that's why

Iam always getting heat from customers lol. I worked at bestbuy for 4 years and also at Circuit

As an installer BB pays way more!!! I took a 7 dollar pay cut when BB let me go 4 some BS. But I really dont think that unit would work, When I was at best buy we had a kenwood indash that flolded out then popped up. Lots of my boys with old skool Impalas use that indash because its gotta clear a panel that sticks out rite above the radio, kinda like the "S",
