 I recently got this and fitted it myself, easy peasy!

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/XTRONS-TD714SGD-7-Double-2-Din-GPS-HD-in-dash-Car-DVD-Player-SAT-NAVI-/400449925431?pt=UK_In_Car_Technology&hash=item5d3cacf137

its a double din, meaning its twice the size of a normal car radio (it was for an imported jap car which was converted to a campervan) - you can get them as single din aswell - I added a reversing camera aswell! is been great so far and the sat nav is really clear and accurate - even in france on some small side roads!

as regards fitting it, most radios have the same universal connections nowadays and they simply plug in after releasing the two side slide out securing lugs.

ps, your radio might be a touch screen if you can change radio channels by just touching the front, it might be supposed to do that?

I have taken a look at that and I must say it does look awesome

I am really pleased with it because it meets a variety of needs. with a really clear sat nav for all europe, dvd, ipod, bluetooth for a hands free phone etc. I bought the model that has digital tv aswell, but I am not convinced I really needed it or will even use it, but I suppose time will only tell!

there are single din models aswell that do exactly the same thing and I think is ideal for a campervan because you can even fit a reversing camera. I fitted mine the other day, its great. it automatically goes into reverse camera mode whenever you select reverse gear (by taking the live wire from the reverse light <simples>!!) 

the lidl one looks great value aswell though but is a basic radio, but if that's what youre looking for then I doubt you would get anything better for the price its on at. be quick tho, lidl offers tend to go pretty quick !!!
