Default 2003 double-din installation kit?

hey guys, I just bought a 2003 silverado with the double din setup and I ordered a new double din indash screen.

One problem though, I can't find an installation kit. I looked at wal-mart, autozone and best buy and it seems like they only make them for fords..

I looked online and a lot of the kits look really sketchy, also getting bad reviews..

where did yall get your installation kit for the double-din setup?

THANKS!

I'm pretty sure the one I bought was a scosche, but im not completely positive. I would say the reason for bad reviews is that all dash kits are made to fit a variety of vehicles and may require you to cut off some tabs and/or not use all of the parts included in the kit. Just read the booklet that comes with it and you should be fine. Also, if you have an '03 and up you need a special wiring harness i think because of on-star. If you have steering wheel controls you will need to buy another adapter for that as well. I would just find your cd player on amazon and you should be able to find all the accessories that you need at the bottom of the screen under "customers who bought this item also bought..."
