Pioneer AVIC here too. Mine's an X1R (euro) but I think the latest of this line is the N3 in the US. The advantage is that its a 1.5 DIN unit so it fits in the existing gap. The downside is that it covers the AC vents. You can move it down by swapping out with the HVAC.

Nice looking setup, DeeGee. Like the idea that it will fit without modifying the dash.
