I used the two cages that secure the HU into the dash kit, then got a piece of narrow metal bracket and attached one to each side connecting the top to the bottom. I was able to keep the dash kit for the correct mounting places into the car, but cut out the pocket with a drimmel

I'm pretty sure, you can flip it. I hardly use the dash kit, its fkn ugly, the deck sticks out way to far.

What's that little knob opposite your hazard flashers? Did you install it?

I don't see why not considering I use to have a tape deck below the stock HU. There is space down there for a full DIN

Stock headunit is larger than one din, but the whole space is two din (4").

Wake, if you are wanting to put a full din in dash screen above your HU, you need to lose that kit anyway.
