Default Double Din question?!?!

So I am in the middle of trying to purchase a new radio double din with everything on it lol. But every car audio place in like 100mile radius will not do the install. All of them are like I wouldn't be interested in that install on a c5 corvette. SO I need help here guys give me some info or something on how to do it or what i can buy to make this alot easier please.

Dennis from Double D Mods can give you some guidelines on the procedure...

but if this installation is outside your comfort zone or ability, you may be looking at a trip to Dallas.

As mentioned we can make this as easy as possible for you.
We can send out the radios prewired so all you need to do is connect two wires in the car. I have a email file available I am working on I can send you to show you an install guide.
You will also of course need the bezel modified. We have some killer deals going on Pioneer and Kenwood currently as well to send us your bezel for modification as most do.
The install is really not to hard but something I can guide you through it as well. I get calls all day long helping people install these. Doing it yourself will save you some good $$$ as well.
I do have Josh at Lakeside Audio in Conroe TX who will install our packages for you and Franks Vettes in Houston as well who we also send customers to for installation of our packages.
Give me a call and I can explain what is involved and go over details with you. The hardest part is cutting out the bracket under the radio.

I did mine a few months back. If I can't help, Dennis has been great about getting back when you message him but I'll give it a shot. Maybe this link will help with your question.
