What size is a stock chevy head unit?
the vehicle is a 1998 chevrolet silverado 1500. I am looking into head units and need to know what the size is of the stock one. I know it is not a single DIN, but is it 1.5 DIN or 2 DIN?

go to www.crutchfield.com. Even if you do not purchase from them you can put in your vehicle info and get all the specs/ sizes you need.

single din

All the factory original radios I've had in full-size GM vehicles have been double DIN. There may be exceptions to the rule, but I've never seen them. My 04 Silverado-surprise! Double DIN.
The metra dash adapter kit provides spacers for both double and single DIN head units. If you see a single DIN unit you like, you can install it in the double DIN space. Most aftermarket double DIN head units have a built-in equalizer. |
starting with 03 chevy full size vehicles they went to double din. before that was single din

Maybe i asked the wrong question, I need to know what size the opening is so that i can put a deck in. for my current stereo (stock), there is a clock, cassette, and all controls on the main part. Underneath, there is the cd deck.
I would like to put a regular sized aftermarket cd head unit in, but need a kit to fill in all the exra space. Does anyone know where I can find a good kit that will work with my truck? Thanks again |
The company name is Metra. If you can't find them locally at parts stores or audio installers, you can order them online for about 20-30$. You'll probably also need a electrical adapter plug, and a GM antenna adapter for most aftermarket radios.
