1995–2002 Chevy Truck 1.5 DIN Touchscreen Radio Kit
OBS & GMT800 | Apple CarPlay & Android Auto
Our Gen 2 1.5 DIN touchscreen radio kit is the ultimate radio upgrade for 1995–2002 Chevy and GMC trucks. Designed specifically for OBS Chevy (1995–1998) and GMT800 (1999–2002) platforms, this kit allows you to install a modern touchscreen head unit while retaining the factory dash bezel, with no cutting or permanent modification required.
