Default '03 Accord Head Unit -- Impossible?

As I have spent the better half of the day drooling over the '03 Accord pics, it seems as if and upgraded aftermarket stereo would be a daunting task. I call on ArchIceman and all professional audio technicians to start now, searching for a way to replace the factory stereo. If you look at the pictures, you'll know what I mean. Radio, CD changer, and climate controls all in one unorthodox shape. Looks great, but we need good sound. And most factory systems don't cut it. Time to start thinking!

the Bose 6 disc in-dash deck on the RSX-S looked pretty tough to replace but it's very possible with either an aftermarket kit or the stock dash off of a base RSX with regular din sized opening....

Everything and anything is possible...

Great. So we have the kit, now how do you suppose we remove that thing?????? It's tighter than a catholic school girl! And there are no slits, screw holes, or trim rings to remove.

the oem stereo looks really hot, especially with navi system. i probably wouldn't replace it with an aftermarket deck. but with money, everything is possible.
