Default caska double din install and questions

i have searched the threads and found a link with two people on the board that have this setup, however i have recieved no PMs back from them concerning my questions.

Link to player:
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...ighlight=caska

I have no clue wutsoever about audio video so i will ask what mite seem to be some dumb questions, if anyone can help:

--how much will the installation for a double din run me?
--can i have any kind of ipod compatibility with this product (it states to have an aux input, hav no clue what that is)
--some say that the stock amp is too weak and i have to replace it with another one, 300watt would even do. where can i get the amp, and wut brand (maybe ebay?)
--will i have to tell the installers to fill in the gap that is left over after the install, or do i have to buy the piece in advance for them?
--can i watch movies while on the go, or does the installer have to do a mod for this to happen?

if any of this can help, this is what is listed for the player (caska ca-1601 double din):

--Installation will run 100+
--replace the stock amp if you are upgrading speakers/sub
--you can get a pocket to fill the gap. let the installers know this when you bring you car in

all you do to post multiple pics is just keep clicking the image button and adding pics to the same reply. There is a limit to the number per reply though
