Default Double Din DVD Install Question for C5

Hey guys,

I want to install the Kenwood DVD Unit (Double Din) that I took out of my Mitsubishi Eclipse. I sold the car and kept the deck. I have seen guys using DDs in the C5.

My question is, what kind of procedure is involved in this?? Do I have to trim the dash to fit this unit?? The current opening for the horendous cd player is alot smaller 1.5 din if im correct.

Any feed back would be great. I thought I could also mount the "brain" unit behind either the driver or passenger seat.

The best deal you'll get for the dash is here if you can't DIY

There's plenty of room for the brain above the passengers feet. Pull down the plastic trim piece with the light on it and look up.
