Well I have a pioneer in my 95 teg and I had to put a dash kit in mine. Honestly, get a Metra kit from Fry's if you can. If you cant get it, then get it off ebay. Dude like earlier posts, dont short the cost on the harness & install kit. Nice subs and amp by the way, I was running 2 12' Kenwoods with a 600 watt max Kenwood amp at the age of 15 in my old Nissan reg cab pickup.

u dont need the kit u can slide it in there. either top or bottom i have mine in bottom my right ringer reaches it perfect when my hand is on the knob.

all u need is the the harness that connects factory plug into aftermarke plug
u just hook up wires based on what they are. most times they have matching colors.
and as far as hooking up the amp and sub
just message me ill help u step by step.

Yes, you need a kit. The factory pocket has no way to attach to your new stereo. Get a Metra. Even though your stereo comes with a harness, you still need a car-side harness. This is an adapter that plugs into your factory stereo's plug and then you wire it to your stereo's harness. Both the kit and harness are vehicle specific. Don't just buy the first thing you see but look up your application for the part number.

Do this right. You have money or else you're not putting gas in the car. So get $50 together and get the kit and harness. And if you don't know what you're doing, then pay another $35 for the installation.

heh i was lucky enough to get my car with a aftermarket stereo kit in it already. but ya... if you dont have it well.. the head unit will fly out of the pocket when you accelerate (trust me.. not fun driving with one hand on the wheel and the other holding on to your deck lol)
