Arrow Double Din Stereo fitment?

I have a single Din Pioneer and it's Single Din EQ in my FC.
I would like to toss in a 7 inch Touchscreen type Stereo.
My Question is how "easy" is it to fit in?..do you need to hack at anything inside the dash to get the Double din Stereo to fit?
..Also If anyone has suggestions on a Double Din size Deck OR a good Single Din Deck then please post up!!I am looking for Kick *** sound!
Thanks Guys,STYX!~

I had a avic 910bt in.

the frame went in like i was 0.5 - 1 mm short in space, but i've got the idea that the stock frame is just slightly bigger then usual.

correct me if im wrong.

Oh, it will be a bitch to get all the wires out of the way, especialy if you are going to use the rca connectors.

Use stock brackets to mount, mount to the top of the bracket creates a well underneath. That well give plenty of space to tuck all the wiring. Dress panel for that bottom gap. Done.

That's what I have in mine with a c/d changer behind the seat, but I had it all installed.
