metra kit 99 5715 or 5714 i *think*   this is only off the top of my head.   comes with new dash bezel, move climate controls over to new unit.   Comes with all wiring needed to run to the trunk and tag into the actual "radio".   subamp should be normal deal after HU is done.

you can get those tools from just about anywhere that sells car audio. when you go to order the kit for this car, make sure that the a/c controls are turn knob style and not digital, i don't believe that metra or scoshe has made a kit for the digital ones. good luck and happy installing!
