Identity Crisis Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 I am about to install a Double Din in the space for the stock radio in my GTP. I know when I did it years ago with a Double Din in a Cavalier it was a real PITA. Just wondering if anyone has installed one in thier Wbody?

theghoul Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Yep Not a big deal if you have a mounting kit. You may have to trim the bezel a bit, but it fits pretty snug.. I also had to remove the metal holding bracket in the rear of the radio compartment to fit the JVC double din. pix in another thread http://www.w-body.com/forum/index.php/topic,60700.0.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Just wondering if anyone has installed one in thier Wbody? I installed a double din pioneer in my old '97 Cutlass Supreme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1990lumina Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Did the GTPs have a double din head unit factory?? Or is this gonna involve some cutting of the dash to make it fit?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q-Ball Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Did the GTPs have a double din head unit factory?? Or is this gonna involve some cutting of the dash to make it fit?? I believe they are 1.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slick Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 1st Gen GP's are 1.5- You can get it to fit, but it's gonna take a bit of work. The latter year Cutlass's were Double Din, no big deal sticking a double din HU into those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Identity Crisis Posted June 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 ok so my GTP is a 1.5 and from the looks of it, it sure is. Now to find a cage for it. I guess I will be calling some of the stereo shops today. I am installing an Alpine Flip and Alpine DVD/CD combi. That takes a total of double din. I pick up the gear tonight. Wish me luck.. Thanks BTW for the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrett Powered Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Is it a double din deck or 2 units combined? cuz you could mount one of them in the glove box. or just screw it and get video Ipod and run it thru the flip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
