I put a Pioneer nex6000 something in a 2000 silverado. I found a black double din trim piece (metra I think) and it worked great. Just a quick google search and I found this.

It is doable. Cheers and good luck!!

Not the best picture, but i wasnt focusing on radio install at the time so much as the led conversion in the ac head...

I had my dash completely apart so i swapped in an 03-07 dd bucket and dash trim, but metra makes a kit that includes a new dash trim for the conversion(which of course i didnt see until about a month after i did mine)

I have since swapped to a pioneer and cant remember the model number
