I'm about to install an Empeg in my wife's 2001 Chrysler Sebring coupe, which is basically a Misubishi Eclipse with Chrylser labels.

The center console is different though(not double din), so I ordered a new Mitsubishi one from http://www.oem-car-parts.com/?mitsubishi-accessories.com1

I will use your tips in doing the install. In my Hyundai Santa Fe I had no choice but to grind the console, because it was too narrow for the cage to slide in. You can see that install at: http://www.riocar.org/modules.php?set_albumName=album39&op=modload&name=gallery&file=index&include=view_album.php
