Allrighty folks, just bought a 2004 Strat SXT, and I want to replace the deck and factory speaks. Normally, I go through Crutchfield for such audio endevours but unfortunately they don't have any specs on the '04 as of yet. Has anyone run into any guides for replacing said materials? Or a website that offers stereo mounting kits? Thanks.

I just replaced stock equipment in a 2001 Stratus Sedan. It is probably nothing like the model you described, but this is what I found when doing mine.
The deck was a snap to replace. It all slid out as one unit, and I used the factory bolt patter to put in a Kenwood deck. I had to make custom brackets, but as far as holes, it is all stock. The one thing that was time consuming, however, was that the wires from the harness in the car are not labeled, and there was no ground strong enough to ground the deck. I had to add one in, and use a wire tester to flag and mark the various power leads.
I did not replace any door speakers, but the rears were easy to do. Paneling was easy and very neatly hid after market amp and power wires.
