I'm not sure on the model number but I have a Dual flip-out touch screen head unit. It has DVD, iPod, CD, rear camera and sub capabilities, and full EQ. I like it alot (came with the car) and I don't plan on changing it at all.

X2 on the Pioneer AVH-P4000DVD

I know your looking for a fold out LCD but I have to agree with HMFDZ28 on going double din.

I just picked up a P4000DVD for my daily and am happy as hell with it, the interface is easy to use and very intuitive. The only reason I don't put one in my SS is that I already have a JVC KD-AVX11 in it.

One really nice feature is that it has USB input, my ipod just died so I'm using a 16 GIG thumb drive for my MP3's because I'm too cheap to buy another. Oh yeah the fact that it can play DivX files is pretty badass too

Here's an installed pic in the DD(phone pic sorry)

HMFDZ28 - We could fit a double din in an Fbody? Reason I ask is that I was looking into Alpine's 2008 Indash Receivers and the one that caught my eye was the IVA-W505. But when I check on Crutchfield they state it wouldn't fit. I havn't had a chance to firsthand check out the receiver but i didnt want to buy it and then hack up the dash to make it fit. My next choice would be the IVA-D106 but the 505 looks more badass. If I could fit a double din then i'll just get the 505.

The opening in the 1993-2002 Firebird and 1998-2002 Camaro can be modified to accommodate Double-DIN.

There are several threads on this (including my install of a Pioneer AVIC-D3).

Here are some threads:

https://ls1tech.com/forums/wiring-stereo-electronics/919253-double-sized-din-stereo.html
(plenty more links in my post in that thread)

This is my install. There are pics and details on mounting.
