RE: '96 Blazer - New to forum

In a 96 the mounting hole is shallow, but with a bit of trimming you can get almost another inch of depth. Be careful though, there's a fairly major wire harness running back there, so don't just start chopping away. As for mounting a double din head unit, it all depends on how creative you are with fabricating a new mounting system. I'm working on something similar at the moment.
