If you are asking this question, the answer is no.
If you want a double din screen in there, you will break it. If you want a double din headunit, you are looking at major work.
Dont waste your time. If you really want a screen, slice the dash.
Sorry bro, the s2000 is not screen friendly.

The search feature sucks. It also takes less effort to ignore the post than to flame.
There isn't the height for a double-din. Yes, the radio is practically sitting on top of the SRS unit and the area immediately above the radio is the center vents for the A/C.
The immediate problems I see are:
1. Sacrificing the center AC vents - no biggie, but these are used for top-down cooling and heat.
2. The top of the screen (provided it really can be shoehorned in there) will be so far back under the dash, you won't be able to see it. Think about it - how well do you see the vent that's there? the screen will be a bit farther back than that.
If you have bucks to spend on a custom job and you do not want to chop a hole in the dash, one member had a motorized display that slid down in front of the radio from the center vent.
It's the coolest compromise screen mod I've seen.
