It has the 2 knobs. Mounts flush. Would have to cut the plastic, but not the dash.

I was looking at do my install this way. How does the liner get stuck to the roof though? Glue, screws, ??????

You can get an underdash mounting kit and put it in there. Then you don't have to cut the dash and you can use the stereo spot for switches or guages or something.

Another option for the 1009 crowd is the Tuffy center console that has the DIN hole.

Got a picture? I'm having a hard time picturing this. There's no way a CD would fit through the metal hole in the dash for the display portion of the stereo on any pre-IFS GM truck I've ever seen.

The center hole is deifintely an issue. I saw the 2 knob setup and thought it would fit. Upon further review, probably not, at least not without some cutting. My next option will be to mount a unit on the cage. At least that way it stand a better chance of staying dry. I am leaning towards some type of water resistant system.

That's what I was thinking. For as much work as it would be you could just cut for and install a DIN head unit and be done with it.
