You would still need a wiring adapter, and you would still need to get the correct install faceplate. Din1 and Din2 just identifies what size they are, regardless which Din it is you still have to get a new faceplate, the stock one is all one piece so you can't reuse it.

stock radio faceplate is part of the stock radio..... new radio should have its own.

stock radios are din and a half, to make a din 2 fit you have to do some custom fab work. im pretty sure there is a post on here some where
