i didn't think it would be possible to fit without the fascia linked above, as the stereo is smaller than the hole in the dash?

maybe this is a better picture to understand


it reduces the size of the hole, so double din unit can be pushed into it and secured.

i may be wrong though?

needs a wiring harnessnot sure which one, dont have time to search for you. and a areal adaptor.
and possibly a signal splitter

if you go in store they will tell you what you need, they used to have a button on there website saying what you needed to buy. but they dont seem to have it any more

Shouldnt be too hard to connect. Getting the standard one out is fun, Make sure you have got the keys to do it. Just got to remember to switch the yellow and red wire connectors over if when you plug it all in it doen't remembr your presents.
