Car stereo advice wanted

[sylvar]

I just bought a 2002 Mazda 626 and I want to upgrade the stereo, something I couldn't cheaply do with my old 1997 Taurus.

I want to put this MP3/CD player into it, and this kit seems to be a pretty decent console to put it in.

Should I expect to need any more parts in order to do this? Do I need a wiring kit too?

Should I do this myself or pay someone to do it? If so: mechanic, Best Buy, or car audio store?

I'm comfortable taking a computer apart, but I haven't done much with car stereos.

Does he have DIN tools I could borrow?

I think this is how to remove the stereo from a 2002 Mazda 626, and I haven't had DIN tools in a long long time...
