Pull bezel off, unscrew and swap internals (HVAC, power, lighter), and then put back on. But it wont fit with the stock radio I don't believe, because of the two knobs on the sides.

It's easy. I'd suggest going to your local Harbor Freight, and getting a set of interior tools. Under $10. Don't use a screw driver to pull the bezel out. Most double din head units have an input for the back up camera...so you could pick one up from them.

I second the not using a screw driver. Nice mark in my truck to prove that point.

I had thought about doing this also when the stock radio craps out.

What head unit are you going with?
