All supplies should be the same. However, you may want to tap into a dimmer source. I am unsure on the double DIN stuff. I always go to crutchfield.com and see what they say when you plug your car info in.
 
If you are putting it in you 00, you can do it, but it takes some fab work. I have not done it, but you can search it. Someone just put up some pics of their install
 
And you got me all excited with "big install"... :th_tongue2:

It'll hook up just like any other deck but you'll need to mod your dash to get it to fit.

Go to the junker or PM fish and get a new dash bezel so if yours becomes fubar'd, you have a spare.

The factory harness is pre-wired for a dimmer, just gotta use the correct harness and you'll be okay.
 


its going in an 04+ i know its no biggie i just wanna know what new stuff ill run into with a double din/gps/dvd screen unit......
 
if they want to keep the onstar and all of the door chimes there is a special wiring harness that needs to be used. its made by metra. i forget the model number. it would be on crutchfield
