Replacing a Double DIN, can it be that easy?

[elweezo]

Looking for a stereo for my niece (98 Grand Marquis) She has a double Din stereo and I was watching a Youtube vid showing how easy it was to take it out with the pull tools. But no one showed them putting the new one in. I am wondering though, after connecting the proper metra kit would it be as simple as connecting the connections and then sliding the new Double Din stereo in place?

Thanks for any knowledge

A lot of double dins...come with the metal can/sleeve so it should fit in the hole and bend the tabs to lock in place...and radio should fit in place...

If the radio doesnt have the cage you can get a Metra dash kit part 95-5817
