has anyone installed a aftermarket DVD/stereo in their C5? if so how large of a screen can you go without cutting into the dash?

The only way to go bigger with the screen is the double din.

We can put any size double din in the car. Most your Pioneer Kenwood JVC ect radios are all the same size but any will require modification of bezel and some in mounting cage as well
The 1 exception is the Alpine X008u or last years version in the 928 which we also make a bezel for and have these as install ready packages


Check out our options here

or give me a call and I can explain everything you will want to know

I am getting ready to also post as well a Focal and Kenwood complete package special I will be running for the weekend



Here is a before pic of a customer we installed a Pioneer NEX 8000 for
