from what I understand you can go to the dealership and get the bezel for the factory in dash gps radio, and you are good. No semi-circles, double din, etc...

The dealership can sell you the trim panel/bezel/whatever you call it that they would use if the truck came factory with the double din gps navigation. I believe it is around $150-$180 bucks. You can then use this to install any double din GPS unit. I looked into this a little while ago as I am going to be getting the new Alpine double din with removable GPS.

Yep, I bought this off of eBay for $75 shipped:



It's a little bigger than 2 DIN, but there's a kit you can buy to make a 2 DIN device fit this:
