What models, if any, of cd/mp3 players will fit in the LUV's ? Crutchfield's website says none at all. Or is there some dash modifications to do ? If so, what does it entail and is it easy to do ?

The area around the hole where the stereo goes into has some extra black dash material around it.

If you can get a standard face plate trim( ask a car stereo store for one ) and hold it up to the opening you will see that there is about a 1/4" extra all the way around.

Just carfully trim this to the demensions you need.
NOTE:
Use the face plate as a template.
Just flip it around and tape it into position to use as a cutting guide.

Most stereo head units are standard size these days, so you can pretty much
have your pick.

yeah... as long as it's 1/4DIN it'll fit fine. Just be careful trimming around that hole, it'd suck to cut TOO much.

I just jammed mine in there... Really tight fit, but at least I didn't have to worry about it coming out.
