Default Will this fit?

I've done a search and took a look scott_fx's very informative FAQ, however, I was unable to find what I was looking for...how much depth is available in the radio compartment?

I am very interested in purchasing/installing the G4 by Infill. I know this will require modification to the bezel, however, there is no sense in undertaking the job if the unit will not fit (I don't want it sticking out).

Take a look at the following link for the required dimensions:

Thanks for any info provided.

Probably closer to 7.75" (or even 8"). Do you know if there is enough room in the C5 radio compartment to accommodate this? Please advise.

I'm trying to avoid having to remove the bezel (a small PITA IMHO) and measure. Is there anyone out there who happens to know the depth dimension? Scott_fx?? Please advise.

That would be great!! The unit will not be available until April 16, so there's plenty of time. Thanks for your help!
