hey just to start out im not an audio guy so dont freak out on me.
I bought a 92 civic a few months back and i finally got myself situated with getting the body straight and some performance parts.I havent even turned on the stock raido but twice and now im thinking about getting a cd player.How swappable are the honda cd players?I was thinking about getting the cd player out of the new Si if it will fit.any help would be appreciated.
thanks,
jamison

 

OMG YOU ******* MORON YOU'RE SO STUPID, no i'm kidding, why not just do an aftermarket deck? i put an Si radio in a 99 hatch, but i dont think you can do it in a 92... not 100 percent sure, but pretty sure

 

I was looking at some aftermarket decks but they just dont look right in my carI like the OEM style.and all i want is just a cd player no fancy out puts and XM radio ready crap.and I dont really want to drop over 2 bills on a decent head unit for some punk to walk by my car and say "hmm thats cute I wouldnt mind putting that in my geo tracker.I just want ot know if all honda/Acura head unitl will plug and play. yes i am a moron.

 

hmm.anyone?

 

The plugs and mounting system on a "new" Si radio are completely different. A reputable, name-brand, detatchable face radio, can be had for alot less than $200 and it will sound tons better than a stocker. Only the dumbest thief will steal a radio with no faceplate. It cost more to buy a new face for a cheap radio than it does to buy a whole new radio. No street sale value.

 

While im on a roll of asking stupid questions. to put in a 99-00 si inot my car I have to take the male part of the harness off of the 99-00 and just splice and match colors to make it plug and play?

 

i'd go to circuit city or some place like that and have them get a 71-1721 harness from Metra. This will plug into the back of the Newer Si's radio, and then you can use a 70-1720 to plug into your 92 Civic. This way everything will wire right up and can be undone anytime down teh road

 

thanks for the advice.
