How do i know if a head unit i like / want to buy will fit my car?

also does anyone know if the lil fin antenna on the back of bwms is for am/fm radio or satellite radio? if its for am/fm does anyone know if you could get one from aftermarket or an oem replacement?

If the unit doesn't fit, you can always buy a fitting for it from Wal-Mart or another audio place.

Just go to crutchfield.com and do a 'what fits my car' search. They filter out anything that won't fit. And even if their prices arent the lowest, you'll still know what fits and you can go to Best Buy or wherever and get it cheaper.

actually, most aftermarket head units dont "fit" per se. Because the stock radio leaves a huge gap after you take it out. You can pretty much get most of the aftermarket radios out there, but you need a kit that costs about $10 that cosmetically blends the the radio with the dash via a black plastic rectangle.

on my car, you needed an antenna adapter cause the input for the antenna was the small kind. i dont know if all years have it like that.. odd..

Yeah the kit is a given, with every aftermarket head unit you're going to need one...along with the wiring harness.

yeah, you can get the wiring harness adapters that work for that head unit and make/model of car pretty cheap, the antenna adapter is just like $5 at any audio place

Install it yourself if it doesnt come with free installation...its easy ass hell , if you can use pliers and arnet color blind then you can hook up a head unit...i had to get a little plastic adaptor also and it looks fine in there...and almost imposible to take out..
