Im looking to get an alpine IVA-W205 for my '01 super crew but crutchfield says that it will not fit because it is "double din sized" and my truck can only hold "euro din"...so i was wondering if anyone has come across this problem before and has found a solution.

Do they not offer a euro-din size in a similar radio?

it is an in dash dvd/ cd player..it will fit where my stock radio is but i think it is talkin about the depth of it or something

Crutchfield should list the dimensions, try pulling yours out and and compare.

yea i found out the chassis size but i wasnt sure if there was a way to get it to fit if they dont match..the only in dash dvd players that will fit my truck are single sized not double...thats why i was wondering if there was a way around it
