Equipment needed to install double din in 08 sedan

[DHSCatcher13]

Hi everyone! I just got an awesome deal on a flip out double din. I am considering taking it somewhere to have it installed in my 08 sedan but I would like to buy all the needed equipment myself online in order to cut the cost of installation. I know I will need a dash kit but I'm not sure which type or if there is anything else I need. What about a wiring harness? I'm no audio expert so any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!

do you have onstar?

[DHSCatcher13]

I don't have onstar or bose.

then you need the harness and dash kit that fits your 08 sedan specifically. Both are available online from most larger stereo retailers.

Thanks! I appreciate the information! I found a kit on eBay that says it fits my car and comes with everything I would need. It also comes with a piece that converts my antenna. I'm guessing maybe I also need this?

[petrified.rabbit]

yes you would.

DONT GO TO A STORE, look up on ebay the double din kit, it comes with a harness, antenna, and plastic dins, and such, look up honeydee on ebay, thats where i got mine for 50.00 or buy off crutchfield and they give you that stuff, i also installed it myself, i took a video ill post the video if you'd like.

The video would be greatly appreciated. I'm not really sure how to remove the stock radio.
