no fabbing or cutting required...The receiver is the Kenwood DDX-6019, and i got the metra install kit and bought the new bezel from Dodge for the model with GPS and it fit perfect. The bezel was $120 from dodge and well worth it in my opinion. If anyone is interested in doing a similar install, I will supply all part#'s.

How does it mount -- brackets or a big slide-in sleeve?

I'm considering one for my truck but I'd have to cut the hole, and I don't know if the black bezel would be able to form a lip to cover where I cut -- surface mount instead of flush mount.

Any info would surely help!

I bought everthing from Crutchfield.

Metra install kit Part# 99-6510 (free from crutchfield with radio)
Metra Wiring Harness Part# XSVI-6502 (got for 1/2 price from crutchfield) *FOR THE 4 SPEAKER SYSTEM ONLY*
Antenna Adapter Part# 40-CR10 (free from crutchfield)
Factory Dodge Dash Bezel For Navi Part# 5KS701DH-AB ($120.00) *THIS PART# MARY VARY DEPENDING ON COLOR/FEATURES.

If you have the infinity 7 speaker system, you will need aamp turn-on interface instead of above wiring harness listed. The Metra part# for that is CHTO-01. Hope this helps!
