Default Universal DIN pocket mounting plates

Hello again, I have the double DIN setup with the stock head unit inside (of course) and I am soon to be the owner of a single DIN head unit. I have searched my *** off to find a dealer of a decent looking mounting plate with a pocket below the head unit. I want one that has the radio hole in the top, and a pocket for storing **** right below. This thing, from what I understand, is just a plate to fill the space that is empty after taking out the old double DIN head unit. Help me out please, I just can't find a damn thing out there.[:@]

there is a pocket that you can get that isn't standard on them anymore. they changed to the little plate that clips in. try HERE. they have the pocket as an accessory

I could not navigate that site. I don't know what the hell is going on with it, but that just didn't work. So you mean to say that they don't make the plate with a pocket below it anymore?

the companies still make the pockets, but, as hillbillyinohio said, lately the pockets have become an accessory, not standard anymore. you might have to buy the pocket extra. if you cant browse the site, try copying the URL and use a different browser

I found THIS on eBay, it looks good to me, the only thing is that even though it says that it fits in 2003 blazers(what i have) but the picture looks more like the outside size is a 1.5 DIN. What do you guys think?

After looking on the Scoshe website, the part number doesnt match up, they list the number for 98-02 as GM 1588B, must be some small difference. I think it is only a single DIN kit, looks can be decieving. You might just have to buy a universal kit and make your own 1.5DIN dash kit. Scoshe has a "Multi-Kit" part number GM 1500B, dont know exactly what it is, but it might be worth looking up.

Here is a link to the application chart for Scosche's products Scosche -Click The Blazer is on page 10.

Wow, thanks a lot for the help, if this doesn't work out i'll just have to go to a dealer and yell at some poor people.

Upon furthur inspection of that link there it appears that they don't even make a double DIN kit for the s-10 OR the Blazer. I need the double DIN, because there is a double in there right now and i'm getting a single DIN radio.
