It is possible to put a single radio top center in the panel and even a second one if it's not very deep.
I'm pretty sure a Garmin 430 would fit way up top as that position is above the yoke and control Tee.
I'm actually looking into this as an option but you wont make it a full center stack.
If you used a Garmin 650 and the remote mount transponder, you could almost but BOTH glove boxes back in.
