Default Double Din

I am trying to get a definitive answer, but cannot seem to find it anywhere. I would like to put Double din touchscreen stereos in each of my rides. 07 Ram CTD and 07 Grand Cherokee Laredo. I swear it looks as if there is enough room in the bezel for DD, and behind it as well. Cannot anyone definitively confirm or deny the ability to do so and the existance of the install kits or amI gonna have to one-off this stuff?

Crutchfield says double-din will not fit.

Default RE: Double Din

Here's the skinny, I called crutchfield and had a lengthy discussion regarding both vehicles:

If you have a 2006 and up Ram without nav, you need to buy a nav bezel, then there is a Double Din install kit made. However, if you are also getting the electrical connector install kit you need to make certain you order the electrical kit for a non-nav truck as the nav trucks have different connectors.

The same holds true for our Grand Cherokee, we need the nav bezel, nav to Double din install kit, and the non-nav electrical kit...

Like that likety split and you're good to go!!!
