You need a dash pocket. When I ordered a new head unit from Crutchfield, they included one free of charge. You can order it from them here:

Their webpage doesn't mention anything about fitting a Ford but it seems to be a pretty universal kit. It fits fine in my 96 Cobra. You might give them a call to be sure.

Edit: I found the paperwork that came with my dash pocket but it says it only fits 94-98 Mustangs. It is made by Metra so I'm sure they make one that fits your model. Give Crutchfield a call. They are very helpful.

look at a wrecking yard or ebay for a wrecked convertible without mach...they have covers that go over where the speakers should be.
