Double Din radio for 2001 Caravan?
Has anyone ever put a double din sized stereo into a 2001 (or comparable) Caravan? I know the standard dash bezel is a 1.5 din. I've seen some comments that some dodge trucks came with a double din bezel for the nav system and I didn't know if that might be the case for the Caravan too. There are also others who just trimmed the bezel (and some other things behind it) for other dodge vehicles (magnums, rams, etc.). Any advice on what would be involved would be appreciated.
I just ask because I've got a nice alpine double din am/fm/cd/tape deck sitting unused in my basement and the standard Caravan radio doesn't have a cd player.

Your local car audio store should carry an adapter for about $20 that will allow you to use that radio. You may have to trim the bezel using a dremel type tool to make it fit in the slot.
I was hoping there might be a stock bezel with a larger opening that wouldn't require cutting (such is apparently the case with some of the newer models with the nav system). If there were I might be able to pick it up at a junk yard.
