Installed 7" Pioneer Navi AV receiver in my W210

I had a shop in LA install a Pioneer AVIC-7000 NEX in my 2001 W210 E430 this past week.

AVIC-7000NEX - <b>NEW!</b> - In-Dash Navigation AV Receiver with 7” WVGA Touchscreen Display | Pioneer Electronics USA

It is compatible with Apple Car Play, although it requires a firmware update from Pioneer when it's released in about a month:

Pioneer CarPlay

The installation is immaculate. It looks like it came from the factory this way.

To fit the screen in, the HVAC controls were moved to the cubby hole behind the door.

Here are pics of before and after:
