I installed one, fits perfectly, nothing extra necessary. I have a pioneer AVH3500 I believe, fit right in.

double din fits in perfectly. just need the mounting brackets but i am sure you can use the one bolted on your single din (as i have in the past and currently done at the moment)

on a side note... from a fellow 6gc'er to another. if you are getting it off ebay, please dont get those cheap chinese ones. they are utter rubbish. they burn out wiring. poor sound quality. poor video quality. poor reception. AND THEY DO NOT FIT WELL. looks like it is not meant to be there. probably because it shouldn't have been made in the first place.

Have a kenwood double din in the celi. Much better than the sony in my avalon. Better interface for ease of use. Both were ebay. you can save quite a bit buying last year's model. The Avalon was an easy swap. Had the Celica done I didn't want to butcher it.
