So.. had some work done on my Civic (2003) radio locked out, found the code online got it sent.. still locked out..
BUT
going to replace it anyway!

Will the radio anti theft feature conflict with a new head unit?

Will get better photos soon.TIA!


(assuming the code lock is built into the OEM radio)

 

No.

 

NV, thank you I was beginning to think of this site is dead!

Doing my homework ordered a new head unit JVC Bluetooth.

It looks like my real question should be
Will will my keyless system still work with the new stereo installed? it seems to be quite a discussion topic I found this on another site and the expert claims the radio in 2002 and newer are not connected through the keyless system hope that's right! Oh yes, I did get the OEM radio to work with the correct code that I got wrong I've always had a problem with transposing numbers

When I had my old '01 Civic EX sedan, I installed a single DIN Pioneer in it and it worked fine. I don't recall the car having a factory keyless entry. However, I did installed a Viper alarm on the car and it worked flawlessly. All the wires you need are under the dash, driver side.

 

Thank you NV, I think what we'll do when it gets here is disconnect the plug from the OEM radio close the doors and lock the car and hit the remote and see if it works without the radio before we start installing the new I have a feeling there isn't going to be a problem.

 

Haven't started on the car yet. Prep work in
the house where it's nice and cool with the air conditioning on.

So far it's, wire for wire I think I have only one question, The orange white or orange orange one is missing from the other, assuming I only need the dimmer which is orange white?

 

Forgot this picture!

 

It is sweltering in southeast PA today and tomorrow and yesterday like an August day!
Halfway there everything popped out and apart like it's supposed to but it is a struggle. I heard something break but I couldn't find it I guess it was one of the clips.

After we had everything unplugged and out of the car I locked the car with the remote and it locked and it unlocked so I assume there is no connection between the radio and the security system. so I'm halfway there should finish tomorrow morning!

 

I decided that the sleeve that came with the head unit is not necessary.

I did find a way to fix the loose AC vents!

 

It's a wrap! Mission accomplished! And...it works! 🤣🤣🤣
