I have not done that, but I've seen that picture before. To me, it looks like they just carefully removed the ash tray, lighter, and accessory switch. You'll have to carefully grind the plastic away because it is all one piece up to the edge. The center plate could be almost any material like aluminum or wood. It appears to be covered in black vinyl. That doesn't look too hard to do if you want a double-din CD player. that one actually looks larger than double-din.

 

that does look good......im gonna do that to mine......yeah put the stereo there and put the switches for foglights etc. and push button ignition there.....looks nice n neat.......i think the just the bracket for factory radio got cut out and he put in a plate over everything.....looks simple to do really
