I've noticed that a few companies (Pioneer/Premier for sure) are making
head units sized for the oversize GM/Chrysler radio holes, which is nice
to see... No need for the (often) ugly adapter plate.
Ummm, upon re-reading your message I think you were saying that the
style/color of the radio matches the rest of the dash. If so, then just
ignore this post. :-) You're right; the bigger radios probably won't match
the "motif" of the dash; just fit in the hole better. Hey, they're bound to
look more "stock" than a half size one using an adapter kit though! :-)
