it requires changing over to an 03 up bezel moving the hvac controls down and some cutting work. myself id just get a flip out. its alot of hacking.

well after your done it looks like an 03 up besides the hvac has different knobs
but you have to cut alot and fab up brackets in the radio arear and the hvac area

the wiring would be fine on your 01 and is much easier to deal with
