Rear Factory Radio Support

Hello,

Question out there to all that may have installed Double Din Aftermarket Nav/DVD systems into there H3. How did you get around the factory rear radio support? Can it be completely removed?

I'm trying to install a Pioneer AVH-P4200DVD in a H3 that I currently lease and I dont want too cut anything out so I can put the factory radio back at the end of the year when I return the hummer. But I want to put this in till then. So i'm looking for suggestions before I'll have to suck it up and pay for an install.

Thanks Guys

Chris

It may not be critical as a support when you put the OEM radio back in but I haven't heard one way or another.

I might be pissed if I was the next buyer and something happened to the OEM radio because of not having that rear support. I'm sure it's there for a reason.

The radio support shouldnt get in the way of the new unit, maybe its the cabling that is bunched up?? If it is in the way, I just break them off...It does help hold in the factory radio, yes, but its also secured by 4 7mm screws and is just fine without the plastic bracket in back...
