if you put a stereo in the Amp place, it wont sit and fit flush. it'll move about and slide.
Plus it'll rattle, the amp isnt the same size as a stereo.

Thats a sierra / Granada amp.

Re the "That's a Sierrra/Granada amp." It's identical to the one that was in my pal's Orion 16i Ghia. The Sierra Granada one has a lip along the top edge. (I have one of these also as I had to buy it to get the connecting cable and the standard radio/cassette.)
