Check out www.crutchfield.com They have good tech support and have a pretty wide variety of stereos to choose from.

Use a wiring harness and installation kit.
It will make it a lot easier.
Crutchfeild may seem a little pricey at first but remember they give you both of the above items free with receiver purchase.
I even got the "master sheets" for my van(another free item with receiver purchase)
and it explained installation in great detail.

no problem you can pull if off. Don't freak when you see all the wires attached to the back of the radio. they should consist of 2 wires for each speaker (prob 8 total), 2 power wires one to battery and one to ignition(red and yellow) (if you want to have your new stereo run right off the battery and not shut off when you remove the key, connect both of these to the battery) 1 antena (the fat one) 1 ground (black)(attaches to the body/frame) and a remote (blue)(you won't use) and maybe a power antena wire (pink?)(you won't use) that's it, easy. good luck
