In dash DVD

Will any of these HU fit in a 2003 Lightning?

Alpine IVA-W200
Kenwood DDX 6019
Pioneer AVIC-D3

Picks if ya got em.

The websites say they won't fit but I know I've seen pics somewhere.
I don't want the type where the screen flips back into the unit. I tried a search but I can't find what I need.

They will fit, you just need a good installer to make a few minor tweaks tp your dash.

I installed the IVA-W200 in my L - it requires that you trim the top of the inside plastic radio mounting area to allow the unit to slide into the dash.

You then have to drill mounting holes in the side plastic to screw the unit in place.

I wrapped the metal tang in back with duct tape and the rear of the unit rests nicely on it.

To put the trim ring on the unit, you will have to dremel off a little of the plastic on the back side of the dash bezel.

All in all, a fairly easy and straight forward install.
