Try halfords they do a lot of car audio conectors.You give them the name of of the product your fitting and the car you want to fit it in.usually a universal plug is offered.plug it in your radio then into your loom and away you go.No additional wiring no mess.Usually costa around £7.Hope this helps.

Yes, you can.  This is a standard "DIN" opening.  Width and height are specified; but not depth.  The plastic empty space tray immediately below the radio - actually make this a "2 Din space"

If you are electrically savy - carefully remove the black trim bezel (two hidden fasteners in the middle section and a couple at the bottom; and a hidden white plastic tab buried way in the back at the bottom - need a long screwdriver to release - accessed only after removing the ash-tray...

I am not aware of any pre-existing wire harness adapter...

Electrically savy - get the above out -  and then measure the available depth.  You can get several molex connectors from Radio Shack, and cut the current wires - and put connectors on them - so that you can reconnect the original factory radio easily.  Unplug those, and make molex fittings going to the wiring for your new radio connecting to the molex you put on the factory wiring.

I'm currently looking at putting in a satellite navigation radio with screen, dvd player, etc. into my 1988 Camry which I've owned since new.  Only new car we ever bought....  Good luck.

Theres a standard amongst most stereos, so if these colors apply, then you will be right,
Red is Ignition power
orange is direct power
Black is earth
blue is for phone
White is for electric arial
then there will be four coloured wires with matching color trace wires, these are the speaker wires.
Hope this gets you going, good luck.
