It depends upon the model year you're dealing with. Your 2004 is a bit different than my 2007. There was a switch from having a bit of trim around the COMAND to not having that trim. Some units fit in one but not in the other.
It will also depend on whether you want to keep or replace the amp and/or speakers.

My thread about the Kenwood upgrade I did is:

A bit of warning - It's going to cost more than just dropping in a HU from WalMart into a Honda/Toyota/Nissan!
