Post Sony Headunit Installation in Ford Falcon

hi guys

So new project this weekend is installing an Aftermarket CD/MP3 head unit in my 2005 ford falcon BA

The interior is pretty basic. It has 6 CD changer audio system It works but sometimes wouldn't change the CD . Because my niece Isha put 2-3 coins in it :P

So we decided to install same Sony headunit as in my mitsubishi.

Interior doesn't have any empty slot to put the head unit.
However we can get Aftermarket FACIA to install that.

This is what my cars interior looks like:
