Installation
The panel arrives pre-bent and contoured, so it drops against the dash without shaping.
If you order it with hardware, you get two 1" threaded hole filler studs, two nylon spacers and two 1/4" flared speed nuts. The hardware can also be bought on its own.

Radio Delete - 47-53 GMC Chevy Truck
Common questions
Will my radio fit the opening?
The slotted holes take factory post radios and the popular classic-style Bluetooth radios, including the ones we sell. A radio with a non-standard shaft spacing may still need the openings finished by hand - the panel is 18 gauge steel, so opening a hole is straightforward.
Is it pre-bent to the dash?
Yes, it is laser cut and pre-bent to the dash contour. It is meant to be a do-it-yourself repair for a dash that has already been cut for a single DIN player.
How do I know it fits my truck?
This part is listed for 1947–1953 Chevy and GMC 3100, 3600, 3800 and Suburban. The full year, make and model list is in the Truck Compatibility tab on this page. If your truck has been modified, or you are between two of the year ranges we list, send us the year, make and model and we will confirm the fit before you order rather than after.
How long before it ships?
It is a stock item and leaves our warehouse in 1-3 business days. Transit after that is typically 2-5 business days in the United States. Larger orders can arrive in more than one box on different days.
What if it is not right for the truck?
You have 30 days from delivery to return it by mail. Return shipping is on you, and the part needs to come back uninstalled and unmodified - once a panel has been trimmed or welded it cannot go back. Made-to-order items are final sale. The full terms are on our returns page.
Can I install this myself?
It is designed for a home install with ordinary hand tools, and the fitment notes on this page list anything that needs drilling, trimming or welding. Where an installation guide or video exists for the part it is linked in the Installation tab.
