Single DIN radio adapter for Nav truck?

I got a single DIN radio adapter. This is the one that has the small cubby hole under the radio.

I would like to get a Navigation Bezel and a single DIN radio that would have a much biger cubby hole. The reason is I would like to mount my brakesmart controller there. I mounted it on the knee bolster and it looks out of place.

I checked Circuit City, and they have no such beast. Does one exist yet? I imagine there are not too many ppl with Navigation looking to go single DIN..

Well I work for Circuit City. We dont have a dash kit yet and for one reason.. No one has developed a box yet that allows an aftermarket radio to interface with your trucks CanBus System. All it is really is that your radio puts out one volume level to and amplifier when you turn the volume up it sends a signal (data) via one wire to the amplifier (located above your glovebox) telling it to turn up the volume. Other than that I am not sure if you could just bypass the whole deal. I have put amps in and even 4 speakers and another 4 channel amp after the factory one all on a factory stereo. But we are not allowed as of yet to replace that stereo due to this Data system that I GUESS may be tied into other functions of the vehicle like GM's.

Metra is supposed to be selling them now. About 4 months ago when I put in my double din, they were just coming out with install kits

Actually Peripheral makes an interface piece for the CAN bus system which I have already used in a vehicle. I beleive the part # was CHYAH05, worked great, also had input to turn on facotry amp, output for park brake, VSS, reverse wire. Really sweet little piece when trying to add an aftermarket NAV.

Well thats news to me. We still dont have the adapter yet. I look forward to it seeing a lot of people are waiting. We sell periphrial, usaspec, metra, AMI, and I can order PAC stuff but the last we called they said it wasnt available and would be for a while, I will check tommorrow on those part numbers.
