Did you check what Crutchfield has to say? Even if you don't buy from them, their site provides a lot of good advice (and part numbers)...

good idea ill look now

*edit* they only show a lower pocket for a single din radio. so im assuming that i wont need anything for the double din to be mounted or for fitment. unless anyone with experience wants to chime in.
