Question Swapping A/C controls and radio positions

Howdy,

has anyone attempted to switch the A/C controls and radio on a pre-facelift XJ? The idea would be to fit a 1DIN head-unit with flip-up screen there, which on the default radio location would run against the upper border of the dash.

Hey, I just messaged the guy in this thread to see if he would give some details on his install. I have relocated the hvac controls but there is not enough depth where the hvac was. I believe it is simply duct work that I can cut back but want to verify before cutting it back.

You might want to consider this unit. You can position the screen anyplace on it you want.

I need an alpine compatible with my PXA-H701 audio processor, I guess I could get a different processor
