Yes, it is fairly easy. Your car will need a special mounting adapter for the radio. I would recommend Crutchfield (http://www.crutchfield.com)as a great place to buy a radio from online. If you buy a radio from them that costs more than $129 you get a free wiring harness and mounting adapter.

Crutchfield is good for beginners to use because buying from them they usually include all the adapters and detailed pictures for a step by step explanation to install everything. However all of this comes at a price. If you can find the instructions online, or even ask around the boards for help. Radio shack currently offers a kenwood reciever with 2 6.5" speakers for 50 dollars, it has a cd am/fm, and mp3 plus a front facing aux jack for hooking up an ipod or something. Crutchfield is good for reference once you get the idea, but their prices are higher than most other places.

Well,I received my stereo in the mail from Crutchfield and I am very impressed !they give you very good step by step instructions on removing your old unit and installing your new unit.It came off without a hitch.The new stereo is awesome.I will never buy from anyone else.
