should be ok,
measure a standard one

ive been told double din stereos dont fit into standard mini dashes due to the slope of the bulk head behind the dash,

as said best to measure what volume you have due to double din stereos do take up a lot of space. a way to get around this is maybe fitting a step on the dashboard that allows the stereo to sit out further than usual allowing for space in the back to accomodate wires etc.

You could always buy a centre console, with a plain front.
Cut the hole, and mount it in there
