You can do a double din conversion {easiest} but with time and money your interior can look any way you want it to.

The double din conversion is basically taking the center console, radio cage, trim, buttons, and wiring from a newer model and sticking it in yours. Can be done for a few hundred bucks if you can find a complete donor car. If you wanted to run a touch screen without doing the conversion, you'd either need to run a head unit with a flip out screen or do some kinda frankenstein custom cutting type ****.

Was looking for videos on youtube, how peoples do that, and yes removing center console, and replacing with newer model.

I think I'll stick with flip out screen, but we'll see
