But you are saying it wont sound good at all?
volume control will be a pain.... plus, youll lose radio and cd player.

what do you drive anyway?

So basically I should scrap plans for the double din screen and go flip-out w/ head unit?

Im still trying to figure out what you hate about flipouts. If you truely want to keep your radio and want a touch screen either move the headunit to another part of the dash, get a flipscreen, or go home.

After looking at it, i literally only see him being able to use a flipout or getting rid of the radio and compartment underneath and going something like this



If you were to fab you could move the heater controls somewhere, place the radio in that spot.
