double-din HU question

I can't find anything about if people had to install the Metra OEM Adapter to put a dvd 7" new HU or if they just cut away the plastic in the way. I have been getting errors with my stock HU on my 03 g35 sedan. So I was going to get a JVC KW-AVX710. If anyone has done this please help me out!

Yes you cut the middle plastic bar if you are going DD instead of single din.

heads up:

if you plug everything in but your ac doesnt do anything as in temp up down/ mode button doenst work, you may have to remove the platic backing on the metra kit and make sure there are no jumpers

that had me stumped till I called metra
