Do you mean overall size of the console itself? I should be able to measure mine tomorrow if no one else does it first.

unless you have a mustang dome light on the front of your headliner, it won't even come close. it stops pretty much where the sun visors stop.

you have to put your own garage door opener in the console. the button on the console just pushes the button on your opener.

I have no idea why people are so scared to cut their headliners. I had no problem at all cutting mine. So long as you check and re-check your overhead console location and don't cut too much out, you'll be fine.
