I looked on crutchfield and it said the F90BT would not fit my 2002 GMC Yukon without Bose and with Onstar. I currently have an aftermarket stereo and was wondering if anyone has put the F90BT unit in a yukon or if it is possible to make the unit work even if its not suppose to fit.

If your dash is a double din you are fine. you dont need bose to use this unit

I'm guessing its not double din because crutchfield said it would not fit my car.

From the pictures i have seen it is 1.5 din

So it would be able to work?

There have been others that have fit the deck into that truck. Search the forums for the 2002 Silverado install.

My Expedition was also 1 1/2 DIN, however with a little creative dash modification I was able to fit a double DIN in it.

Hey, I have a 2003 silverado and they told me it would not fit, then they said I had to remove some brackets to make it fit, but mine went right in with no modifications at all, looks like it came from the factory to tell you the truth, couldn't be happier. I do think that 2003 was the year of a newer body style though, which could of had a different dash/radio setup than your 2002, but I doubt it would be that diferent. I would go for it.

dont always trust crutchfield's info. It is NOT always accurate

well in this case its right. D-Din in that truck isnt a direct fit. you will have to modify the sub dash to mount and the outer trim to fit.

 

you can alternatively get the newer sub-dash and outer piece but it still needs some modification to work.

Thanks for all the help. I might end up taking it to a local stereo store and see what they can do when I purchase the unit.

I got an estimate for the install of the f90 and was $500 for a custom install because it does fit my dash. Does this sound right to anyone who has had a custom install? It sounds a little ridiculous but then again I have no idea.

Seems like someone is trying to make a quick few bucks.. I only paid $429 for my f90 so $500 is a little crazy.

 

Where do you live? If you are close to north jersey I have a shop for you.

When I had bought mine my brother was with me and he has a 02 chevy and for my truck the parts for the install cost 40 bucks for my f150 and his costs 200 bucks!!!!!! Something about the onstar and how it works with the radio... im not sure but because it had onstar it raised the cost???
