D3 in a 2002 GMC Sierra 1-1/2 DIN?

I have the dash apart and there appears to be enough room behind the radio/AC bezel, but before I spend the $ on the system I wanted to ask if this has been done.

 

Trimming of the bezel will be required, but it is not in the best condition to start with.

 

Many thanks in advance

Here's a guy that did it to his '99 Silverado:

Another option that I have seen people do is:

 

Buy an '03+ dash trim bezel, which accomodates a double-din unit. It will fit, but take some modification....not as much as the method above though.

That job is way over my head.

 

Would love to see someone that did the job with the '03 bezel. I have a friend that came over today with his '03 Denali and we switched his bezel for mine to see how it would work. My A/C controls would need to be moved down and I don't know what that would do to the top of it (if there would then be a gap at the top of A/C controls). The sides of the A/C control are blocked just a bit, but I can live with that. I think I would need that mounting bracket stuff out of an '03 as well. I will have to do more measuring.
