I just got one in the mail recently and it comes default as a single din. For my double din install i had to cut out the middle bar to make it accept a dd unit. So, yes, you should be able to do that.

x2

I got the Metra turbo^2 dash kit for my 04 Sedan and i ran with Single Din for 2 and a half years until last night, when I removed the kit, cut out the middle bar, installed the plastic side brackets (DO NOT MISPLACE THOSE OR YOU'LL HAVE TO GET THEM FROM ANOTHER MEMBER ON THE FORUMS LIKE I DID!), and then I installed my new double-din nav system. Also, don't misplace the double-din whatchamacallit ... trim piece

Your kit will come with everything you need to do single din, double din, or iso din (wtf?). Just keep all the pieces in a safe place (like the box it came in) so you can make adjustments accordingly as the occasions arrise.
