Double Din in a 2003 Grand Prix?

To all Grand Prix owners years 1997-2003!!! Have any of you installed a double din DVD screen in your cars? If so, is it a big job or could I try doing it myself?

I'm not sure how similar a GTO is either, all I know is that from just looking at my dash I feel it won't be easy. The only reason I'm considering doing it myself is to save 500 bucks on a custom install and for the learning experience.

You'd have to remove the ashtray. Relocate the A/C controls to the ashtray area and then make a custom mount of some kind. Can be done, but will require some work.

Hit up the car audio section of clubgp.com. If someone has done it, they will know.

I put a double din in a 03 Olds Alero, should be similar cars... anyways all I had to do was trim the trim panel ( has ac controls ) so it could flip in andout, not a great fit tho... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
