Yes it will work, however you will also need lid with navi unit as well, essentially this will be what your screen will sit into (I am trying to source the exact same thing here in the UK but the dealers are pretty thick )

I think the days of the niec 7" screen in the cubby has been numbered ever since 2006. =(

Placing an LCD screen in the Z’s upper/forward cubby is very easy. Of course, double-din units won’t fit there, but the Kenwood KOS system is a solution. Using Kenwood’s KOS system, you install the KOS system LCD in the Z’s upper/forward cubby slot (the OEM navigation position), a KOS controller anywhere (the large cubby space behind the driver’s seat or passenger seat is best) and operate your entire CES using either the KOS touch-screen function or a handheld remote control.

The KOS LCD screen supports RGB so it is razor sharp. The navigation component (Kenwood KNA-G510 Navigation Box) is ROM-based using flash memory (instead of slower DVD and HDD solutions from competing manufacturers). Access and display speed is phenomenal. You also get instant updates for application software and data maps using an Internet site and an SD card.

I think everyone is more worried about actually mounting a screen in there cleanly like the 03-05 guys are able to do...

^^ You are correct. I’m trying to understand the reason why this project seems so rare in the ’06 and ’07 models. It does require some surgery and custom fabrication, so I guess it’s just easier to drop something into the DD slot.

EDIT: This is certainly a topic that interests readers. Notice the high “View” count, confirming there are plenty of ’06-07 owners who are interested in using the upper/forward cubby for something other than storing “smokes” or sunglasses.
