WANTED: Dash pics with new heads units

Could people post pics of their new head unit installs. Did you all need to use the Double DIN Dash Kit?

Anyone got more pics of DIN units installed in their G's? It would be nice to have a sticky thread of installs so people could get a better idea how aftermarket headunits will look.

Please post pics of screens in both open and closed configurations so people can see what they look like when not blocking the console.

Thats probably the best aftermarket nav/screen setup I have seen yet, but I'm not sure I would opt out of getting a factory nav to go through the trouble of installing it; that looks like a real pain to get setup.

this is much better than the factory cause it can play dvd's, its touch screen, and its down low so the cops wont see when im playing dvd's...! its also very easy to rig so that it plays dvd's while im driving...

this is my second G and i went without factory navi AGAIN!!! i dont like the pop-up mechanism, even thought its motorized now...

So what's the word?? Can the 04 interior(dash) be swapped with the 05? I read something about the 05 retaining clips not being in the same areas as the 04, does anyone know? Is anyone else thinking of swapping?
