The first thing you need is to read the threads about double DIN installations in this forum. A couple of them are here and here. A search on "double DIN" will find more info.

Like any aftermarket head unit installation, you will need a wiring harness adapter, an antenna adapter, and brackets/mounting kit. Some of these you may have from your previous installation. You'll also need a Kenwood KCA-iP301V adapter cable to connect your iPod.

Yes, you can hook up a sub to the Kenwood. It has separate sub output on the back. You'll need an amp of course.
