The head unit is easy to remove. There is only one screw to remove that is to the lower right of the radio. Once that is out the bezel can be pulled out. Once removed there are four screws to remove and unit will slide right out.

You can go to cruchfield and get the speakers sizes from the web site. Also get the "easy connect" kit. It the wiring harness that you put on the new radio to hook up to the stock harness. Its cleaner and easier to put the stock radio back on in case you decide to trade in later. I have an '02 sc also. It came with the Infinity system. It's not bad but has a builtin loudness function that when I wanna turn up the music it rolls off the bass. Here is a pic of the box that I got at a stereo shop, nothing fancy just a couple a Kicker 12's.
