Nope.... The two dashes are totally different not to mention that the electrical connections all changed in '03. The audio connections on the 2000 - 2002 cars are basically Ford.

why would you put a newer model stock radio? I mean I dont think they fit like JOsorth mentioned. I installed a pioneer premier on it with 6 1/2 component speakers with an amp and they sound like a movie theater. Let me know what you have in plans though

From the looks of the 2000 to 2002 dash isn't the factory stereo just a normal double DIN unit?? I thought you didn't need a kit for those, just a double DIN head unit...
