Double DIN Upgrade for Stereo Head Unit

I want to upgrade my factory head unit (truck has the factory Infinity system, without the CD changer option) so I can have a video screen with a backup camera. It's kind of limited with the factory DIN and a Half limit - is there a way to upgrade so a larger head unit with a big video screen will fit and still look good? Is there a kit to make the opening larger, so bigger head units will fit and still look 'factory'?

Appreciate any suggestions - thanks in advance!

Do a search. There are a couple of guys on here that have done a double din in a 2005. You can also do the flip out version.

Nothing avalible, you will have to get a flip out screen or mod your bezel yourself.

You'll have to make your own. I did using Bondo. This one isn't mine but looks the same.
