I mounted my GPS antenna (magnetic) to the top of the 2 din mounting cage. Obtains signal well and no need to run wires up to the front of dash.

That bezel looks like a single DIN and would be too small for my Porsche Entertainment, Navigation, and Information System.

I'll suggest ICE Box, a mashup of In Car Entertainment and Boxster. I'll try to come up with more, though Coaster's naming convention is definitely more Porsche or VAG style. They love those acronyms.

At the time, there were no higher resolution cameras, that seems to have changed, but it's hard to tell.
