Double DIN install questions

Ordered all the components for the Double Din (Pioneer AVIC-Z140bh) install.. Question is whether all these PAC audio cases (e.g. PAC-can2, PAC soem4 and PAC-SWI-RC) will fit inside the console. I took out the radio and it doesn't seem to be much space inside..

Appreciate if some of you who have done this to comment!

With some creativity, yes..... I went with a scosche slc-4 instead of the pac-oem2/4, essentially the same thing, but it's tucked in the lower right, the can2 and jack are tucked to the left of the unit, and everything carefully placed back in. It really helps to have all your harnesses cleanly zip-tied and / or taped, and using the soldering and heat shrink method instead of butt connectors to secure everything tightly will help in case a wire gets pulled a little hard. Just make sure all your wiring is clean and managed so you can tuck things neatly and it will all fit in there.... Very tight, but it'll fit.
