Re: Din Size
1.5 DIN is correct. single din kits are available by many different companies. double din can be made to work with a lot of creativity, but not a direct drop in and go.

Re: Din Size
The following shows an Alpine 1.5 in my IROC. The 1.5, IMO, simply looks better.

A bit of Velcro on the remote's backside and it adheres nicely to the carpet. The remote is on the pass side because my wife thinks she in charge of the radio .
