Radio install question...

Just bought from ebay a Blaupunkt Orlando head unit along with the Blaupunkt 5 disc in dash changer. While I haven't received either one yet, I want to prepare myself accordingly. From previous posts on this board, I can figure out how to wire the head unit to the factory wiring (unfortunately, I can't order the crutchfield harness because they don't ship to Canada). However, that's not my worry..
Since I've never done a radio install before, I don't know if I'll need a sleeve for both units to have them mounted in the DIN slots. Or can I just remove the original factory sleeve for my Clarion unit, and slide the Blaupunkt right in? (I'm going to assume the Ebay units won't come with any sleeve or mounting hardware).
If neither unit comes with mounting hardware, what do I get, and where can I get it?
The plan is to have ashtray replaced by the head unit directly below the climate control and the changer take the place of the current Clarion deck. I'll replace the extra storage bin on the bottom slot with the ashtray.
If anyone out there can answer what is probably a really easy question, I'd really appreciate it. I'll be sure to post pics once both receiver and changer are installed.
