GATHERS TAPE DECK 92-95 CIVIC INSTALL??

I got a gathers tape deck with cd/changer controls looks great & got it at a good deal, anyway should it be just a plug & go install or is there gonna have to be some splicing? If it doesn't plug & play then it's GONE! I don't feel like cutting stuff. So if someone needs it let me know.

Buy a harness or splice it. It's not that hard and only takes less than 30 min even if you take your time to make it look nice.

Ok, not EVERY part you buy is going to fit and plug and play like you want it to. You bought it BEFORE you found out if it needs to be spliced into the OEM harness? If you don't want to bend here and there and make something fit right, seek public transportation or don't upgrade at all.

I know everything isn't going to plug & play. I just asked a simple question & you had to give me a smartass comment. THANKS for your concern & it WILL plug & go I just put it in. I just didn't want to screw with it if it meant cutting crap up! I only gave $10 for it so It wouldn't of been a loss. I posted for info not arguments keep that sh*t at high school or grow-up.

Not every cut of wiring has to be nasty. Solder and heatshrink tubing work wonders on clean wiring installs.

No need to. Just that some people come off as they don't want nothing to do with some work here and there and it kind of bothers me as to why they even want to upgrade. Congrats on the new tape deck.
