Default Simple Question

I have a 2000 base model. I mean BASE. I think the only option i have is abs and a spoiler, if thats an option. Well i have finally decided to upgrade my stereo. And i know a guy who is willing to sell me a pioneer z3 : http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...r+AVIC-Z3.html

The 99-00s i beleive have the dash that has the plastic bar between the tape and cd player to separate things.

I was wondering if i needed to upgrade to a later model dash trim that has complete openening like this:

I have posted this in the AV section but thats not too active of a section. Anyways is this all i need? Or would i need more to make this stereo fit? It would be nice to hear from Ryan or Kyle cuz i know those dudes have double din setups.

Thanks in advance!

Yes, you will need the double DIN center to use that head unit.

My friend got the pioneer avid D3 week later someone brock in to his car and tock the whole system while it was parked. Make sure you cover it up with something so no one can see it from outside.
