I don't think that moving the a/c controls would be all that easy. Where would they go afterwards, and how would you make it not look like a bodge?
My opinion would be that putting it in the passenger shelf attached to the top would be best. I think this is just long enough to house a DIN unit, and should be tall enough for a double DIN. You could hide this behind the glove box door (when/if it comes out) and then leave the standard radio in it's slot (albeit, disconnected). That way, anyone looking in would think that there's nothing special stereo wise about the car, and so would be less attractive to theives...
