Are you 100% sure the plate on top of it is welded and not screwed or riveted ?
Seems a bit daft for someone to have welded a plate over something that might need to be taken out in the future.
But it looks like thats what happened if you cant find any other way in to the slot.
Well the rails and plate underneath the swivel seat are def welded. Maybe they did it for security. A bit over the top though.

Maybe its a safe disguised as a satnav and it has diamonds in it.
Sounds a challenge
Best of luck with that one.

Maybe they wanted it as secure as possible. Just googled this:
The system, including navigation computer, LCD monitor, remote control,
and installation components, retails for $1,999 plus installation and CD-ROM
mapping. CARiN 520 will soon be available through a major national consumer
electronics retail chain and can be installed by a professional automotive
electronics aftermarket facility in as little as two hours.
$2000 !!!!!!!!!!!! I wonder what it cost the original owner to have it fitted?

Blimey! You can't give the "brain" away these days. iPhones and iPad minis have taken over.
