    the only thing you have to cut is the dash cover, the radio slot is big enough for a double din.

    awesome do you think i should cut off the part separating the radio and the temp controls or just cut closer to the air vents, i dont understand why pontiac would do a 1 3/4 din...

    depends on double din. some can leave the piece there others your going to have to cut. i cut the section where the climate control is at and then used abs pieces then bondo on top that. on some customers the bondo wasnt needed. and the hole will have to be cutout (the backside where the radio sits) dremel will get the job done.

    You can reinstall the stock radio but it would look like ass. I would still look into getting a extra dash so you always have the option to go back to stock. You will more than likely need some body filler to make it look decent.
