    Have any of y'all put a double din in a F-150 I know some trimming will have to be done I'm just wondering how much. If I've got to do alot I'll just sell the double din CD/DVD player on the cheap and buy a fold out.

    It's a lot of trimming. I was gonna do it but decided against it cause I just didn't have the time to spend on it to make it look right. Unless you've done interior or messed with plastics before don't do it an just get a single din

    You gotta trim alot back in the dash on the 10th gens. I'd rather mod the plastic surround and drop an iPad or something in front of it before i hack up my dash for a double din.

    The stock is a 1.5 din, a true double din will never fit without custom work

    It would be a lot easier to get a fold out.

    The Double Din was gonna be major dash surgery lol so I sold it and bought a fold-out much better fit.
