Head units generally come in either single DIN (180 x 50 mm panel) or double DIN (180 x 100 mm panel) size. The depth is not standardized; as a result, some cars such as the Opel Manta have the correct sized front aperture but will accommodate few DIN sized radios other than the original due to the shallow depth; this despite the vehicle being manufactured as late as 1988. The US standard for a DIN radio is 2" x 7" and the Double DIN sized radio is a 4" x 7". Some radios in Japanese Kei cars do not conform to the DIN standard however.

Is it possible to install 2 single DIN stereos in a Double DIN vehicle?

Sure you can. DIN refers to a standardized radio/stereo size for vehicles (large enough to accept a CD). 1 DIN is the standard DIN specification. 2 DIN or double DIN refers to units that are twice as high as the standard DIN, half DIN is half high as 1 DIN. Check the player position height of your car carefully. If 50mm, you should get 1 Din Car stereo, and if 100mm, you should get 2 Din stereo. You can buy great 2 din stereo from Eonon.http://www.eonon.com/2-Din-DVD-Player.html?utm_source=wiki.answers.com&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=answer

Do 96 Jeep Grand Cherokees have single or double din stereo cut outs?

All Jeep Grand Cherokee ZJ's(1993-1998) have a 1.5 DIN stereo. It is most easy to get a single DIN kit and install a single DIN stereo, but many have opted to cut out a bigger opening and block off the center vents to fit a double DIN stereo. If you want a 1.5 DIN aftermarket stereo, you will be best off buying a marine stereo. Many manufacturers make 1.5 DIN Marine head units.
