Scroll through the photos and see this installation. It looks good.

Nice truck!  And that's a decent installation of a double-DIN unit.

Just FYI, that was easy.  I right-clicked the pic, copied the image address, and pasted it into the line below "Or copy an image from the Internet:".

Anybody else notice how in the photo of the truck with the door open, the double din is nowhere to be found, and the radio bezel is intact? I don't know if the pictures are of two different trucks, or if they installed the double din after the "door open" photo was taken.

Hadn't noticed that.  Probably did the radio later.

Has a GM style HEI dizzy. At that price I would expect a more appropriate set up. I wonder what other oddities are lurking.
