Not hard but not lots of room though. All the ones I've seen the keep the stock dash are mounted in the little cubby to the right of the OEM deck. Gets in the way some and can be a little annoying at times. Folding decks are better.

I saw one done on another Dodge (it was a gasser) forum. The guy bought a junk yard bezel for the dash and carved it up to fit the big screen. I wouldn't say it was easy, but you can do it. I tried to find the old postings to show you but couldn't, sorry. Good luck and post some pics when done.
