I say it isn't ideal because the great thing about the SLS is they have firmware upgrades to the unit. Ideally you want the unit in a location that you can easily gain access for updating the firmware. I will have to pull my glove compartment out for any upgrades. Hopefully this won't happen to often.

If you aren't real handy with taking apart your car, popping the plastic off of a bunch of components etc... I would recommend either paying a stereo installer to do it or better yet wait for FactoryInteractive.com to come out with their DVD on installing the SLS in the TCH. I have heard their DVDs make it very easy for anyone to install their kits. They are resellers of the Vaistech units and they sell their own. Contact Jon at FactoryInteractive.com for details.
I'm wondering if these kits work on non-NAV cars, I do nto have NAV, but hate the Toyota Sirius kit. I guess I'll e-mail them.
