I suppose you could try flipping the kit, but I don't know if that's possible in our cars due to the shape and mounting points of it.
Hm.. Based on the photos of the headunit and the fact that it can articulate up and down, even if we were to use a single DIN adapter such as this Scosche one, I'm thinking we can push the headunit screen down so it doesn't cover the vents. I would have to do measurements to see what precisely it would cover up (air vents, clock, etc.), but just looking at it it seems like it could work...
