[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8853689, member: 674149"] I think what you're asking is the head unit's physical size as in will a new one fit where the old one is mounted. - If so, head units are universally sized and it's called Din. A single Din is 3". A double din is 6". There are 1 1/2 that are some older factory size. Yours is a single Din. If you're referring to the wires, (because that's an uncommon looking way of wiring), or that's at least not how it's done in the US. You will want to see if you can find an adapter harness to fit into your vehicle's harness. One end plugs into your vehicle, and the other is a universal/generic style plug. Your new head unit will come with an adapter harness. One end plugs into the head unit, the other is all the loose wires. Those loose wires will need to get pins attached, then plug them in the appropriate adapter harness plug's, pin locations. (Not sure if that clears it up, find the adapter harness for your vehicle, and expect to add pins). If you can't find it, you would just find a universal adapter, cut off your vehicles end, and add pins. I would expect your antenna cable might need an adapter to make that fit onto the head unit too. You might need to run a new antenna cable from the head unit to the base of the antenna. It kind of looks like that is a 90 degree plug adapter on the end that can just be pulled off. I would try to use the head unit for bluetooth calling. Only because after it's setup, and get a call, the head unit SHOULD automatically mute the radio, and will give you an easier and safer way to take the call. [/QUOTE]
