What head unit will fit into my 82 4x4 truck?

Any information would be greatly appreciated. I was told I couldn't fit a regular size cd player in there.

Thanks,
Michael

I remember on my old '84 there was a slight depth problem due to a vent. I just cut the vent and duct taped the opening so the radio could recess into it. At least I think that was it...that was over 10 years ago though.
