92K1500 Going double DIN :)

[ChrisAU]

No way its wide or deep enough. I had to get my dremel in the back of the cavern my stock radio in my Tahoe was in to get my Double Din in there. You could fit a basketball in that hole.

It would be nice if the mech-less head units were more shallow seeing as there is no cd player in there. I am checking all the depths of the different double din radios trying to see what is the most shallow mounting of them. I don't understand why all the mech-less double dins are just as deep (6"-6.5") as one with a cd/dvd drive in them seems like they could make them a lot thinner and make our life a lot easier for this upgrade. I am digging that extended dash a lot though so that could be an option for me at some point.

the extended dash is allright, i dont like how it makes a lip over the rest of the dash, i thought the one without the heater vents looked good but then you delete heater vents

Heater vents can be re routed without much effort.

the dash in the pick ChrisAU posted is out of a gmt400 style kodiak/topkick medium duty truck.

No, it was a 1500 half ton 4x4, I took that picture with the TV paused. It can be done, its just cost prohibitive really.
