Trying to fit a Double din into a 1.5 Din spot.

and kranny whats that showing me lol

The dash opening this kit is made for is taller and wider than typical aftermarket car stereo receivers. The mounting bracket covers the "gaps" and anchors your new receiver in your dash. It includes a provision for an equalizer.

basically you can fit a single din in there and have the option to add an equalizer

i believe you need an 03 dash kit. the dash kits for blazers are interchangeable, and the 03 dash has a double din.

I have a link on it, let me find it.

Wait, wait. You're saying the 2003 Blazers are a double din? I'm pretty sure mine is a din and a half, too. My friend had a double din dash kit he was going to give me, but it wouldn't fit.

Its showing you a 1.5 din kit to cut out to put your double din radio in, but it wont work since the kit is still only 1.5 din kit with a 1 din radio and pocket.

You would need to find a 2 din kit to make what he is thinking work, which they dont make for the blazer since they dont have 2 din kits.

Alright Doylerules and it will fit for my screw holes in my 97 ?

No, a 2003 blazer is the same body style, different style dash but both using a delco 1.5 din radio (the 2003 just has a theftlock style radio, and the 97 uses the old delco crap that came in literately every earlier gm).

You wont find no kit, you will have to cut up your dask.

Im guessing the room is there if this is like yours?

The 1.5 din radio openings are wider then double dins or single dins so thats not an issue, you will need to make filler panels to hid some holes.

Your going to have to cut into that pocket under your radio, if something is already there you may need to relocate it to another spot.

Making the hole is the easy thing, finding a proper way to mount it may get tricky. Im sure you could re-use the top hardware from the current stock radio to secure the top after a little playing. Just need to find a way for the bottom.
