Cool Radio size question.

Has anyone tried to install a double DIN radio in a 951?

wont happen, It may look like it would work but it dont. You cant even install a single din in the lower slot without hitting the trans tunnel. Unless you cut it into your dash somewhere, thats about it

I'm sure some of them are deeper than others. I wonder what the deepest double din unit measurement would be that would still work. Plus, you'd proabaly need to make sure all the harnesses and connections were in the upper half so there was room for them in the back. I've always wanted to put in a double din nav unit, but never had the extra funds or rsearch time for it.

The manual on the Clarion model says dimensions are 7" Width (178 mm) x 3-15/16" Height (100mm) x 6-5/16" Depth (160 mm)
