I really don't see why it wont fit, however you'll need to cut off part of the back support or it will stick out. This is true in almost all cases though.

I'm running a JVC AVX11 which is similar to the AVX44 kameleon in my SS and I had no problems installing it, I had already cut the back support when I installed an Alpine before.

Here's mine, the screen is tilted so it is sticking out a little more than it does when tilt isn't being used.
