Run a search on metra, they have been used with success I believe. You will need a separate steering wheel controller. I used metra access on my install, been working fine since 2011.

Good luck and take pics of the install!

It's not really the screen size that matters. The Metra kit supports single and double DIN. See also:

If you can't perform the research and install yourself then you may want to find a reputable local installer.
