There should be an aluminum cage that slides over the deck. Put the cage into the single DIN slot, and bend the tabs with a flat-blade screwdriver to secure it to dash bezel. Then slide deck into cage. Most if not all decks will come with a cage.

Did you buy the deck new or used? If no cage, go to a car audio store with your deck, and buy one. It's specific for your particlular deck, and should cost no more than $10-$15.
