Double DIN Sub-Dash Fit?

[JPRanger03]

I've been looking to replace my factory receiver and rather than going with a single DIN model with the little cubby hole, I've decided that I might want to go with a double DIN for a cleaner look. I usually use crutchfield's website as a reference and on the site they state that sub-dash modifications will have to be done and that I will not be able to re-install the factory receiver once this is done. I was curious what this modification was and how drastic it is.

Also, I've been look at these two head units, any input on those is appreciated as well

Both way cheaper if ya wouldn't mind waiting for them to come in.

Yeah I don't necessarily buy from Crutchfield, I just use it mainly as a resource

Thanks for the links though

There are both of your headunits, way cheaper. Just figured i would post those for you. I actually was looking at my headunit on crutchfield, typed the name into google, and found it for 100$ less.

do not use dealercostcaraudio unless you want to wait for ever for nothing to show up.
