Default Which head units will fit my car?

So I was on Bestbuy.com checking out head units for my 97 Formula with the Monsoon system, and not 1 of them there fits my car, or make a "turbokit" or installation kit for my car. Anyone know any good head units to put in my car, and how much they would be? I would like to stay with Bestbuy, as I don't want something insanely fancy.

Also, since I have the Monsoon system, what are ALL of the speaker sizes?

With the proper dash kit and harness, most any single din unit should fit...

Piomeer makes a couple of 1.5DIN units, if you don't like the idea of using an adaptor bracket with a 1 DIN head.

Double-DIN heads will fit with some modifications.

I found a bracket. Bestbuy wasn't showing anything that was available to fit my car, but I got it now. Circuit City carries the bracket I'll need, same with the wiring harnesses. I want to stick with BB because I have 50 bucks worth of Reward Zone crap.
