I had a Pioneer a few years back... it was DD and fit just fine... but it sounded like crap.
My current head unit is an Alpine 7998. It is a 1/2 din head, with a 1.5 din face that powers out. Sounds fabulous!!!
Moving this to Audio.
I do agree that getting an adapter to use a single DIN head unit will be cheaper, look better, and give you more options.
The reducer kit is available on Ebay super cheap and here is even a head unit I suggest.
Pair it with a small 2 channel amp, some good kick panel speakers, and you'll be all set. If you MUST run rear speakers power them off of the head unit, not an amp, so the fronts are the focus and set the listening stage.
If you're keen on a sub, get a 4 channel amp, run the fronts off of channels 1 and 2 and bridge 3 and 4 for the sub.
