Thank you for your video! I was nervous about breaking my dash but it was just because the clips were tight. Once I saw how the clips were set up I was able to remove it without worrying about breaking anything.

[@jptheinstallguy]

There you go, like a walk in the park😂🤣

[@chasesmith8544]

I did come here looking for a wiring diagram but you sir gave me info about something I didn’t know existed. this was very helpful thank you for the links as well!

[@abyssalreclass]

I needed this, I just got a '99 Suburban with that same dash and I plan on doing my own double DIN install

[@jptheinstallguy]

Boom glad it helped

[@johnbanks081]

Just bought a 99 GMC Suburban myself last month, great vid

[@Hunterkiller313]

YOOO I’ve been waiting on a video like this on YT for the longest !!! Thank you!! I have the same color Tahoe and everything very helpful!!

[@Hunterkiller313]

To add on there’s no video like this on yt and it crazy how hard I’ve been looking for one like this for over a month and someone finally uploaded one !

[@anthonywalker2702]

Me tooooooo

[@Creatzions24]

Likewise homie this dude hit the nail on the head for what I’m looking for

[@rickprins2024]

Very nice! I have a '97 C1500 that I'm thinking about putting a DD in. This really helped me see how to do it. AND I did not know that I could get a new dash panel with a DD opening! Thanks!

[@jptheinstallguy]

Glad I could help!

[@ddrummer1071]

wow thank you for this video. Im now realizing that the guy i bought my tahoe from took his dash kit out. i seen it on the floor but this is my first tahoe , so i didnt really trip off of it. Plus some how some way he had the stock dash kit flush but now im having issue. All good. having fun with the tahoe. its the lil things. Letsssss gooooo!!

[@shannonwallin6060]

I been wondering all day how get the new double din to fit right for install and it took forever to find this video. I will have this done tomorrow thanks for the vid bro.

[@jptheinstallguy]

Anytime bro

[@MagnusPrimeE1]

Great video man I’m planning on doing this to my 99 Denali. I’ve got to get the adapter so my Bose amp and disc changer will work.

[@jptheinstallguy]

Go for it!

[@thadbroadway7823]

How did it work out?

[@mwills802]

Dude, awesome! Well done. I was gonna have to pay big for an install, but I can knock it out myself thanks to your vid!

[@malcolmboldon]

I gotta 97 I’m putting in the transmission shop soon this go help a lot when I get her back

[@Nate......]

Thanks man ! I did not know I could buy a new dashboard kit that would fit a bigger radio

[@jptheinstallguy]

You bet!💯

[@shanesheil4033]

Where do I get this kit for my 2000 Denali?

[@chris1k_]

@@jptheinstallguy are you still active I was wondering where I could get a new dash for my 99 ?

[@DocZoidberg549]

No need to cut out the back with a shallow head unit with no cd player. Where did you get the install kit? Thanks

[@chachayteti4life]

Can you post a link of the cutting tool that you used in the video please?

[@brianyazzie6257]

We're can I get a panel like it it's for a truck 3 Chevy Silverado K1500

Dude! Excellent! We definitely owe you a beer!!

[@jptheinstallguy]

🤜🏾🤛🏾🤣😂🤣😂 I'll drink to that🍻

[@terryclayton5415]

Excellent video ! Thanks a-lot. Question: I got the same Tahoe and also saw your wiring video. If I wanted to keep the cd player, how would the wiring work out to connect it to the new Double Din unit ? Is it just as simple as not unplugging the cd unit?

[@irajonah3108]

i realize I'm quite randomly asking but do anyone know a good website to stream newly released series online ?

[@B0BA-F3TT]

Thanks for the video noticed you dropped this on 420 in 2020 nice

[@boblinza9696]

Hi, I have this same Metra DP-3003 kit. Do you have any pics or videos showing how you lowered the Air Conditioning controls? The kit comes with the template for new installation holes, but I don't see how to lower it without doing some cutting of the dash. Did you have to make any cuts to lower the A/C controls like you did in the rear of the radio? Good video.

[@jptheinstallguy]

Thanks for watching and no I didn't have to do any extra cutting the a/c just slid right under the radio no problem

[@brianmin888]

Hey man, great video! I have this exact Chevy . The whole console on the dash looks exactly the same. I’m hoping I can bypass my broken CD deck and install an old-school auxiliary cable to that instead. So that when I hit the button that would normally pull up the CD player, it will just go straight to an audio jack. Can you recommend some hardware for kind of interface?

[@simonrangel9522]

Great Video.. Very helpful...... Shot out to the OBS Chevy Owners.... They don't make em like they used too..... Pure plastic

[@rbrooks1305]

Does this particular OEM Chevy radio use a separate factory installed amp?

[@sixstringworshiper]

I just picked up a 97 Silverado 3 door, it's got this same stereo with the cd player and like 6 speakers. I been wanting to do an double din. I'm digging that saw you have. Is that an air saw or electric?

[@richk320]

Thanks JP!My 99 Bowtie radio works but CD player died years ago.

[@gerryclemonsii]

I can't find one with the matching color. I have Grey interior. Do you have a link?

[@hallietoussaint2568]

Could you explain the color codes for a 1996 Chevy k1500 I’m stuck on a few of them

[@magnumrush]

Some receivers without a CD player are only 3-4 inches deep. For those, am I correct to assume no cutting would be needed like you would for a regular 7"deep unit? Thus your last part of the video where you cut the insides isn't an issue. Please advise.

[@diktat6558]

That's dope. I want one in my work truck now lol

[@jptheinstallguy]

go for it bro

[@tykenison437]

Hey, I just started the process to put in an Atoto s8 premium double din, I have the dash off but can’t seem to be able to unplug the antenna connection at the back of the factory radio. Is there any trick to it or does it just unplug hard? Thanks.

[@deesuydam8838]

Thank you for the Video JP! Liked and subbed

[@jptheinstallguy]

welcome to the club...lol thanks for joining

[@eduardosantacruz1857]

My 99 Tahoe has like 8 speakers, will a new head unit/stereo power all the factory speakers?

[@alphasaiyan5760]

Awesome video 👍could you do a video on the same 99 tahoe/suburban but do a factory amplifier bypass. Is it better to bypass the factory amp install an aftermarket amp for the front and rear speakers or keep the factory amp ? It seems like the sound would be cleaner if the old amp is removed from the system. I was just wondering have you done that before ?

[@djparsons5008]

Where can I get that dash kit

[@dutchmarshall5600]

I have a 1999 chevy suburban c1500 and I'm trying to find a wire diagram for the radio but I can't do you have one

[@ricardoguevara8980]

Thanks for the Video man gonna do this to my 1999.

[@shawnsavage9015]

Cool video! Looks good. What's the screen size of that double din?

[@jamesrobinson6441]

AWESOME VIDEO!! I just got a 99 Suburban and was wondering kwhat I was going to do. Thank You! Where did you get the new Dash Panel for the DDIN?

[@mayeladelara25]

Thank you! I need to change mine and I might try to do it myself 🙂

[@wallacediyityourself173]

did you have to more of the dash to fit the ac controls?

[@Apolloneek]

So does that second harness connection in in og radio just connect to the cd player under the ac controls ? Cause I pulled both out and they have the same conenction

[@jpmotor22]

Thanks JP very helpful

[@RobertoGarcia-nd4qi]

Hi, do you have the link for to buy a dash kit ? I have a Tahoe 97.

[@thelifeofjr2021]

I need help I have a 99 yukon denali trying to put my double din in

[@gonzalezeduardo28]

I got a 98 suburban, did you find that the rear speakers didn’t work after the new stereo install with a wiring kit? If so, how did you fix it?

[@jptheinstallguy]

no everthing worked how it is suppose to. you may have some blown speakers

[@Tarzan510]

My stock system turns on but no sound and idea what I can do too fix it

[@rbrooks1305]

I have a suspicion that the wiring on THIS radio is more complex than what the basic rewiring video would show. This radio has TWO wiring harnesses attached to it. The Metra 70-1858 adapter harness recommended for this vehicle has only a SINGLE plug. I have just installed a similar Android based radio and am getting Zero output from the rear speakers. I suspect that somehow the SECOND wiring harness will need to be spliced into the radio's harness in addition to using the Metra adapter. I will do some experimentation tomorrow with the original head unit and see if plugging and unplugging that secondary harness causes the rear speakers to cut on and off. More to come...

[@TheDonerone1]

We’re u get that Basil at for the radio

[@jamesm568]

I didn't even know that even existed as that looks way better than the tacky double din kit.

[@murdermittenman]

What year bezel do I need for my 99 burban ?

[@benjaminbrown1273]

I have a 97 z71, I want a double din navigation, backup camera radio. I dont care if its built in gps or carplay/android auto. What is your recommendation?

[@jptheinstallguy]

kenwood 376bt its a basic double din touchscreen with bluetooth and rear cam capabilities. no gps or carplay

[@BIGMAN8435]

Did you have to use one of those pac module to turn on the factory amp.Or you just use the blue antenna wire.

[@jptheinstallguy]

should just hook up the blue wire if that doesnt work some trucks with the bose system has a harness that has a pink wire that may be the amp turn on. might have to jump it over to it

[@antoniop5889]

Do a video on a 2002 Escalade double conversion bro there’s no videos at all on it

There’s a video on how to disable the buzzer. Cuts off the seat belt chime and the key buzzer.

[@wallacediyityourself173]

sorry i mean did you have to cut more of the dash to fit the ac controls?

[@jptheinstallguy]

No sir the cutting was just for the radio ac controls didn't have to be moved any

[@Trentfully]

Wow looks great!

[@stephen65la]

I wish i saw this video before i ripped out my 2000 cage and replace it 2003-2006 GM cage. At that time i couldnt find that kit to attached my radio back.

They don't need to be relocated they went in the exact same spot

I'm also struggling with relocating the climate controls, the radio wont fit with them both in there and I cant figure out how to make it fit. Did you figure it out?

Ok, so for anyone else who came here because they are confused because of the templet for the heater controls like I was...they go right back into the slots where they were from the factory. No drilling or extra cutting required. Idk why they even put it in the instructions for us to use this templet for relocation. Just ignore that step. I painted mine gray to match and it is installed.

Hey man thanks. I owe you a beer. I came looking for that and was confused as hell about the climate controls.
