Default Prob a stupid question...

I want to buy a new radio bezel so I can have it molded into a double din one, does anyone know if the bezel is the same for an auto and a manual?

There is no difference.

Actually the radio bezel is part of the entire upper console area so unless the auto trans shifter/gear indicator plate is exactly the same size as the manual shifter boot opening you will have a problem. I would further research this to confirm but something to keep in mind.

As MVR155 points out, the radio "bezel" (assuming we're talking about the same part), is molded as a part of the console cover that includes the ashtray surround, the cup holder, and the gearshift area.

Looks like Chevy part # 10407815 to me ...

Same part whether manual or automatic.

Retails for about $165.00, but you can find it cheaper at supporting vendor sites (about $115.00).

Drop the word "Prob."

Just yanking your chain.
