Default double din?? Possible?

I was wondering if there was anyone out there who had modded there center console to fit a double din head unit, or if there was any companies out there who did the mod/ sold modded consoles. Thanks in advance

There MANY people who have modified the bezel to accommodate double din units. Several have already been posted. To date no company makes a double din bezel...it's a do it yourself job or take it to a professional installer. Here's a couple of examples I found using the search:

Here's one where a guy installed a Vibe 6-disc changer in his F-body. It is a double din unit. At the bottom of the page...

there is a guy on the corvette forum that makes them for the C5. I imagine he would be able to do it for others as well. his name is C5Kidd and he has a website by that name also. It would be worth asking him at least. Good luck


--just checked his website, says he will work on other cars.
