Default 2005 Durango Limited Radio upgrade???

I just picked up a 2005 Durango Limited. It has 6 disc CD/MP3 radio. i want to install a double din head unit that I can have bluetooth, backup camera & Aux. What all is involved is converting the factory bezel to a double din bezel?

All information is needed and if you have photos of your setup that would be great.

Thanks

If its the REC unit in there should be pretty close to a double din. If anything it should just take an adapter face plate. If you mainly want a backup camera and input, they make something called a "lockpick kit" for that unit that just plugs into it to give camera and A/V inputs.

I am not sure what you mean by REC unit.

But this is what I have:

Sorry, REC is the 6 disc w/nav. So the lockpick kit wont work. Here a pick of the receiver in my Ram. Its just a adapter with a faceplate to cover up where the ***** used to be. Its a panasonic touchscreen DVD with dvd out, aux in, and camera in. Throw a wireing adapter in and its pretty much plug-n-play.
