It will not plug and play. '96-'98 use one plug. '99-'00 use another plug. If you want it to work you're going to need an adapter harness.

It also won't fit in the stock location. It's too big.

It's not worth the trouble OP, keep your stock deck or buy a aftermarket deck.

I have an Si deck in my '98 Civic EX coupe and love it. It will light amber too btw, so if you want everything to match you'll want to change the rest of the dash lighting.

Oh, and the OP already said he doesn't have the stock deck anymore.
