Default Dash install kit & pocket for C5

I just bought a Metra dash install kit for my C5, but I've seen some with storage pockets (mine doesn't have one).

Post a pic of your aftermarket HU and the dash kit, I'd like to see what else is avaialble. This one looks like it's going to stick out?? Does anyone know if there is a 'pocket' model available for a C5?

I asked the same question a few months ago directly to their website:http://www.metraonline.com/
and heard back the next day. Unfortunately, I don't recall the part number.

Get the GM universal kit for 90-2000. Should work fine and gives a small pocket for about 3 cd's minus cases. Thats what I've got for mine.

Thanks, that's exactly what I wanted! I'll just return the non-'pocket' model I was sold.
