help clarify my 1st HU install

I'm going to buy this alpine unit to replace my stock HU...

People advised me to do the installation myself and I was wondering if I need the special tools like these?...

same deck I have! Its very very nice. For the install, you may want to check the diy section at the top. It has all the info. Mine was easy cause I had a pioneer in there before so it swapped out almost. If you have the stock deck, its more complicated and a few more screws to take out.
