Yup, it sure would. Just get yourself a dash kit from here:

Yeah, the box should have a sticker on it saying it has the 2.0 update. If not, you'll need to download it yourself and update the unit, not too difficult.

yea i hear you on that i might just cover it with something when im in a unsafe area lol. it would be nice to have a cover for the dd like the scion has for the radio. my friend replaced it with a dd and the cover works perfectly and covers it when he parks

It is possible have to get it cusomized though i guy in San Francisco told me to come down and he could do it so i may just get the Pioneer 4000 or something and get a custom cover.
