Items to be replaced
---------------------
- fuse boxes
- control panel overhead
- ignition switch
- instrument cluster
- head unit
- sound amp
- cd changer
- phone system
- teleaid
- some wood trim
- seat control modules
- all wiring associated
But on the bright side it wouldnt cost much to do the TV and parking !
You would be looking at an empty shell with no trim inside for about a week.

I guess it's time for me to go ahead with my plan B. I have this portable media player ( http://www.creative.com/products/pmp/demo/zenvision.asp ) that I can make a semi-permanent mount for. It has a big screen so I can see the song information clearly from far and it also has a IR remote control with killer operation angle.
I will post some photos after I have made the mount for it.
Thankfully my 04 has an AUX input in the glove box for me to use so I'm not totally SOL.
Thanks for the replies.
