Would a double din stereo fit in 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500?

It depends on the trim level and options of your 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500. While some 2000 Silverado 1500s came with double-DIN compatible dash kits, others did not. Many had single-DIN openings.

To know for sure, you need to:

1. Check your existing radio opening: Look at the size of the opening in your dash where the factory radio is (or was). Measure the width and height. A double-DIN opening is significantly larger than a single-DIN.

2. Search online for "2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 double DIN dash kit": If you find dash kits specifically for double-DIN radios, it's highly likely it will fit. The absence of readily available kits suggests a single-DIN setup.

3. Look at pictures of 2000 Silverado 1500 interiors online: Compare the dash opening in the pictures to your truck's.

In short, there's no guaranteed yes or no answer without checking your truck directly. The dash kit is crucial – you'll likely need one to install a double-DIN stereo even if the opening *seems* large enough.
